New humanoid robot head with sensory awareness, interactive ability

German semiconductor company Infineon Technologies AG and AI engineering firm HTEC have jointly unveiled a humanoid robotic head featuring 360-degree multi-sensory awareness at OktoberTech™ Silicon Valley 2025. The prototype integrates advanced sensing technologies—including Infineon’s XENSIV™ 60 GHz radar for spatial awareness, REAL3™ Time-of-Flight depth sensors, and XENSIV™ MEMS microphones for audio recognition—combined with onboard cameras and embedded AI software. This fusion enables the robot head to detect human presence, identify sound direction, orient itself accordingly, and analyze visual input, thereby creating a seamless, human-like perception of its environment. The project demonstrates how blending cutting-edge hardware with AI intelligence can push the boundaries of robotic perception and interaction. Built on standard embedded platforms, the system is designed for easy integration into various commercial and industrial robotics applications such as eldercare robots, autonomous delivery systems, smart home devices, and security robots. Although still a prototype, the humanoid head received
