Chinese smartphone maker Honor said it is developing a “robot phone” whose camera folds out on a robotic arm, and will share more details at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona early next year. The company said the device will incorporate artificial intelligence but offered no specifics. The concept underscores a broader push in Chinese consumer electronics to rethink long-standing hardware designs to integrate AI. Earlier this year, Beijing-based Roborock began selling a robot vacuum with a fold-out arm that uses AI and sensors to detect and remove obstructions.
