Humanoids daily(@humanoidsdaily):What happens when a factory robot breaks? Tokyo startup O-ID is building modular humanoids with replaceable joints, limbs and compute units. Its pitch: on-site repairs in minutes, supported by sensors that flag component wear before failure. It has raised $1.2 million in pre-seed funding led by TAWANI Ventures, targeting Japanese automotive manufacturing and logistics first. The modularity is intriguing. Measured repair times, reliability results and a customer rollout schedule are still to come.
