Manufacturers are increasingly interested in humanoid robots due to persistent labor and skills shortages, rising product complexity, and the need for greater operational resilience. Humanoids promise flexibility: Their humanlike form allows them to operate in environments designed for people, using existing tools and workstations without extensive reconfiguration.

The hum of machinery. The rhythm of creation. The spark in the eyes of my students the first time they bring an idea to life through code, motion and metal is where the future begins for me every day. As a faculty member at Arizona State University, I have the privilege of teaching the next generation of engineers, innovators and dreamers. My mission is simple: to help students not only prepare for the workforce but also discover the excitement and endless possibilities that manufacturing, robotics and AI can offer as they discover their futures.

One of my most memorable lessons in the machine shop came from John “Blackie” Armstrong. I was but a few weeks on the job when he leaned over and said, “It doesn’t matter how you do it, just be sure you do it the same way every time.”
