Many people who read my publications showing humanoid robots still ask this question "does this work outside the laboratory", to answer that question I can tell you that a company called AgiBot decided to test it directly. launch a global challenge with more than $500,000 in prizes with a simple objective: make the robot align with the real world, no controlled environments, no perfect demonstrations.

The above touches on one of the biggest problems in robotics today, the difference between simulation and reality, because many systems work perfectly on the computer, but fail when faced with the real world and that is exactly what this challenge wants to expose, but perhaps the most interesting point is not the competition itself, but the access.
