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 →
170cm, 43-DoF full-sized bipedal humanoid for heavy industry (shipbuilding, construction, emergency response) with NVIDIA Jetson Thor and proprietary gearless linear actuators. Commercial pilot with URDF available, priced ~90M KRW (~$65k).
Legacy mentions are unverified. A partnership or announcement is not proof of an active deployment. Evidence labels do not change HMX v2 scoring.

Evidence is attached to each value. Robot-wide source links do not verify every field. A source about an older value cannot support the current specification.
Declared shared origins are grouped. Distinct domains and unclassified origins do not establish independent evidence.
