Each pillar is scored 0–100 from published specs, then weighted into the HMX. Compare it only with other humanoid robots — each category uses its own reference scales. See the full methodology →
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.
