Warm Wiring: Cartwheel Robotics founder Scott LaValley is taking an interesting approach to humanoid robotics. Rather than building robots geared at industrial or home applications, the Boston Dynamics alum is focusing on designing humanoids for lovability and emotional connection. LaValley argues that commercial humanoids tend to be "soulless tools" lacking personality, whereas Cartwheel aims to create robots that bring "joy, warmth, and everyday magic" through companionship rather than utility.
