Kind Humanoid wants to be the iPhone of cyborgs

Designed in conjunction with Fuseproject, the humanoid robot features a face inspired by surrealism that is welcoming but not quite knowable.
It looks like a person made out of wires. Christoph Kohstall, founder of the startup Kind Humanoid, joins me on Zoom from his Palo Alto garage. He’s surrounded by computers, 3D printers, and a machine made for molding carbon fiber.
Behind him hangs his company’s first prototype, an unskinned humanoid robot that could be your shame box of cords gone sentient. While it’s naked for now, a nearby 3D printer is creating a panel that will form its shell.
