Reality check

A demo shows what may be possible. These points help judge whether the product fits day-to-day use.

Works well when
  • Research, teleoperation and embodied-AI data collection
  • Structured factory or reception pilots
  • Tasks where a human-shaped workspace matters
What to check
  • Continuous runtime, fall recovery and battery workflow
  • SDK, low-level control access and spare-part lead time
  • Emergency-stop features and supported operating environments
Not a magic solution
  • A general replacement for a human across unpredictable tasks
  • A maintenance-free appliance
  • A guaranteed return based on a demo alone
