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
Uses proprietary electric linear actuators (one-third fewer parts) and hot-swappable batteries; its AI runs on Google DeepMind's Gemini Robotics, demonstrated handling never-before-seen objects from verbal instructions.
Deployment evidence
Legacy mentions are unverified. A partnership or announcement is not proof of an active deployment. Evidence labels do not change HMX v2 scoring.
