**Welcome back, Superhuman. **Do you want to hire a robot for your wedding or graduation, but can’t afford to buy one? Don’t sweat it. A startup is building a new robot rental platform that lets you hire a robot for roughly the price of a fancy dinner.

Meanwhile, a humanoid just pulled off a feat experts thought was still years away. Here’s a hint: The video has robots in "stitches."

#### **WHAT’S NEXT**

## **The most important news and breakthroughs in robotics this week**

**1. The White House’s ban on new foreign-made drones finally kicks off: **The FCC has added all foreign-made drones to its national security "Covered List," effectively blocking new models from DJI and other international makers from US distribution. The [move](https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/23/trump-administrations-ban-on-foreign-made-drones-starts-this-week-you-can-say-goodbye-to-new-dji-models/) hits hard as DJI dominates global drone sales and remains one of America's most popular consumer brands. The decision follows President Trump's June executive order to build a "strong domestic drone sector."

**2. Chinese firm AgiBot now lets you rent out humanoid robots: **The company just [rolled out](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/china-agibot-humanoid-robot-rentals) Qingtian Rent, a rental platform that lets you hire robots for weddings, concerts, trade shows, and business meetings. AgiBot’s advanced Yuanzheng A2 model rents for $1,380 per day, while budget options like the Unitree Go2 robot dog start at $138 daily. The move could potentially reshape the global robotics market: China's rental sector hit $140M in 2025 and is projected to explode to $1.4B next year.

**3.** **Chinese humanoid completes world's first two-handed embroidery: **In a world-first, robotics startup TARS just [showcased](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/china-humanoid-robot-stitches-embroidery) a humanoid robot threading a needle and stitching embroidery with sub-millimeter precision using both hands. It’s a massive breakthrough and tackles one of automation's hardest challenges, opening doors to a kind of precision manufacturing previously reserved for skilled human workers. Watch the groundbreaking moment [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYlQlsHgD2Q).

#### **ROBOTS IN ACTION**

## **How robots are transforming the world around us**

🫡 **Reporting for Duty: **Chinese startup UBTECH Robotics just snagged a $37M contract to deploy its Walker S2 humanoid robots at the China-Vietnam border in Fangchenggang, where they'll guide passenger queues, direct vehicles, patrol corridors, and inspect cargo containers. The [deployment](https://www.earth.com/news/surreal-video-reveals-humanoid-robots-for-border-patrol-pr25/) follows China's 2023 directive to build a national humanoid robotics innovation system by 2025.

🧑‍🏫 **Teachers’ Pet:** Norwegian company No Isolation's 12-inch AV1 robot is [helping](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/tiny-robot-comforts-sick-student) chronically ill students in the UK stay connected to classrooms from homes and hospitals through encrypted livestreams. The device sits on a desk, transmits audio and video, and rotates 360 degrees so students can look around the room. Early data shows promise, reporting a 21% attendance boost among students using the robots.

💊 **Drug Droid: **University of York researchers are using robotics to build potential antibiotics in days. They used automated synthesis to test 700+ metal-based compounds in under seven days (work that traditionally takes months), [uncovering](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/robotic-chemistry-finds-metal-antibiotic-in-days) an iridium-based antibiotic candidate in the process. The breakthrough combines robotics with "click" chemistry to screen for antibacterial activity while avoiding human cell toxicity.

**Robots also got into the Christmas spirit this week. **

Robotics startup Humanoid's HMND 01 just starred in a holiday video recreating Rowan Atkinson's iconic gift-wrapping scene from the 2003 Christmas classic 'Love Actually'. The [90-second clip](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GY18RddZ0U) shows the robot working as a shop clerk, absurdly over-decorating a gift with stars, pine cones, and candy canes before swapping it for a simple red package. When customers ask the robot to hurry it up, it responds, "I've only had hands for a week."
