Notable
First consumer-priced home humanoid ($20k or $499/mo), but 'Expert Mode' lets remote 1X operators in VR headsets pilot the robot through your home — most demoed chores are teleoperated, not autonomous.

Data confidence: medium. Some figures for this robot rest on single or conflicting sources, or on manufacturer/aggregator material rather than independent reporting. Treat second-order specs as approximate. Fields marked “—” were genuinely undisclosed and left blank rather than estimated.
