NVIDIA SEEKS TO MAKE HUMANOID AI ROBOTS SAFER AROUND HUMANS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Nvidia has created a lab where robot makers and customers can run safety tests before going to regulators to receive the necessary certifications. Engineers at the lab can help with pre-inspection work and engineering tweaks as needed. Robot safety design is much more complicated than safety design for autonomous vehicles, which generally just involves avoiding contact with people and other objects. Robots need to be able to know what things they can or can't touch, move, or exert force on.
