🤖 Building Whole-Body Intelligence for the Real World. Were Just Getting Started.
From bending down to pick up objects and navigating steps to autonomously clearing tables, operating dishwashers, and organizing refrigerators, our robots are learning to perceive, move, manipulate, and coordinate their entire bodies in real-world environments.
Powered by our Whole-Body Intelligence (WBI) framework, were building generalist humanoid foundation models by combining large-scale human whole-body data pretraining, context-aware behavioral foundation models, and efficient post-training with real-robot data - turning human experience into real-world robotic skills.
👉 Watch Whole-Body Intelligence in action in our three-minute demo. More to come. Stay tuned at archon.tech

Great to have @noitomrobotics as a technical partner! 🤝
Their expertise in motion capture and human motion data has been a valuable part of this work. Excited to keep pushing the boundaries of Whole-Body Intelligence!
Noitom Robotics is technical partner on Anchor 1, @Archon_Robotics' new whole-body controller for precise, stable humanoid manipulation. Our mocap systems and human motion data supported the control research, real-robot teleoperation and demonstration data behind it.
Anchor 1, Archon’s first humanoid controller for precise and stable whole-body manipulation.
- Sparse targets for flexible whole-body coordination
- Distribution shaping for stable behavior
- Decoupled feedback for precise control and flexible interfaces
- Systematic benchmarking of precision, stability, and reachability
Anchor 1 is a step toward Whole-Body Intelligence (WBI): giving intelligent robots the body control to reliably turn intent into action.
Key results:
- 30–80% reduction in tracking error
- More efficient real-world teleoperation data collection
- Higher success rates on autonomous manipulation tasks
Coming next: Expanded terrain capabilities, model weights, deployment code, and teleoperation tools targeted for release by the end of 2026.

What’s better than a humanoid playing ping-pong? Two playing doubles—and trying not to crash into each other 😁

How can roboticists scale human manipulation data in the wild? EgoHumanoid builds a comprehensive pipeline which unlocks mobile manipulation training for robots — meaning that you can walk around and collect data for your robot anywhere you go. There are two key components to their recipe: view alignment, to reduce mismatch between human and robot camera views, and action alignment, to make sure human actions can be converted into robot actions. This makes it easier than ever to train robot policies and deploy them in previously-unseen environments. @idomihs joins us to tell us the details.

At Archon, we believe Whole-Body Intelligence (WBI) will define the future of humanoid robotics.
The field must move from isolated, task-specific capabilities toward a generalist whole-body foundation. 🧵
Archon co-founder and CEO Tianyu Li, a WAIC 2026 Yunfan Award recipient, presented “Scaling Whole-Body Humanoid Skills with Human Demonstration,” showing how human demonstrations can scale whole-body humanoid skills.
