Apple is exploring a new way to teach robots how to navigate real homes without needing thousands of physical training spaces. Researchers created 1,000 virtual homes with different layouts and furniture, allowing a humanoid robot to practice moving around before entering unfamiliar real-world environments.

From following people to squeezing through narrow doorways, the experiment shows how simulated environments could make training home robots faster and more scalable.
