India Can Become Low-Cost Humanoid Manufacturer, Study Finds

Imagine robots that look and act like people, called humanoids.

A study suggests that India could become a great place to build these robots much cheaper than in the United States.

Building a humanoid in India might cost about $16,500, while in the US it could cost up to $60,000!

This is because India has lower labor costs and can put parts together efficiently.

The whole world will need many more robots by 2030, worth a lot of money.

While India might only have a small piece of the humanoid market, its ability to make them cheaply is important.

This growth is helped by India's strong technology market, especially in defense, which uses things like advanced AI and drones.

So, India has the chance to be a big player in making these advanced robots.
