   IROS 2026: Embodied AI turns toward engineering

   Leiphone AI reviewed the main-conference papers and workshop list already announced for IROS 2026 (Sept 27–Oct 1, Pittsburgh) and argues the field's technical路线 is converging on four themes: foundation models internalizing physics, hierarchical "big brain / little brain" architectures becoming standard, touch shifting from nice-to-have to core for dexterous manipulation, and a sharp fall in data-collection costs. The piece cites accepted work including ULTRA, HALO, LITHE, VOFA, Blind Dexterity, KineFuse and ViHaTeleop, saying discussion has moved from grand "general-purpose robot" narratives to concrete engineering issues such as physical correctness, real-time control and cost reduction, with Chinese teams increasingly visible.
