The Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) has achieved a breakthrough with iRonCub3, the world’s first jet-powered flying humanoid robot designed for real-world use. After two years of research, including wind tunnel tests and AI-driven aerodynamic modeling, iRonCub3 successfully lifted off about 50 cm while maintaining stability. Equipped with four jet engines and a titanium-reinforced frame, the 70 kg robot can hover and perform controlled flight despite its complex humanoid shape and moving limbs. This achievement marks a significant advance in multi-modal robotics, combining aerial mobility with human-like manipulation, TechXplore has reported. Future applications include search-and-rescue, hazardous environment inspection, and exploration missions. Further testing will continue at a dedicated facility in Genoa. read more: 👍 Like this video to support innovation in robotics and raise awareness about real-world applications of flying humanoid machines. 💬 Comment below—What future missions or industries do you think flying robots like iRonCub3 should tackle next? 🔗 Share this video to show others how cutting-edge research is turning science fiction into reality. 💰 Want to support the channel?
