The thing is, our homes and workplaces and tools are designed for human body design and proportions. Even someone under 5ft / 150cm with a normal human body will encounter dozens of challenges a day.
There are of course more efficient approaches, but then you’d have to reoptimise the world they’ll interact with too.
Hmm, I guess this makes sense. I wonder if some kind of crawler with higher legs could work, so you keep the advantage of crawly legs and stability, while also keeping the proportions.
I don’t get why they have to be humanoid. Like, don’t we have a lot better (and more stable) ways how to make a robot that can easily move around?
because it is a difficult endevaor and earns glory, praise and filthy money if you get it right?
