Sharpa redefined humanoid utility at CES 2026 with its North robot and CraftNet AI, achieving breakthrough 30-step autonomous assembly tasks. By decoupling control into a reflexive Interaction Brain and reasoning Motion Brain, the system solves the last-millimeter precision bottleneck using a 22-degree-of-freedom dexterous hand. This transition from athletic spectacles to complex manual labor marks a systemic shift for the service and retail sectors. Mass production is slated for mid-2026 as robotics moves toward manufacturing time for global industries. 🤖 🛠️
