Industrial Applications
Editorial: wheeled humanoid for supervised exhibition, front-desk/navigation and biomimetic interaction evaluation. Two-kg per-arm load and54 active upper-body axes differ from chassis load. Medical-guidance/eldercare marketing and partnership announcements do not establish clinical approval, safe contact care or accepted factory production.
This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.
