Unitree Robotics has emerged as a critical player in the robotics supply chain, dominating the quadruped market while making aggressive moves into humanoids. This article evaluates their hardware reality against marketing claims, focusing on delivery status, technical specifications, and entry into the Indian market.

An evidence-based assessment of Agility Robotics’ Digit humanoid, focusing on Amazon deployment pilots, technical specifications, and commercial availability in India. This analysis separates shipped hardware from conceptual announcements.

Figure AI has emerged as a prominent contender in the humanoid robotics sector, secured by significant investments from OpenAI, Microsoft, and Nvidia. While their Figure 01 prototype demonstrates capabilities in general-purpose manipulation, the company remains in the pilot deployment phase with limited evidence of mass hardware shipping. This report evaluates their claims against available data, specifically focusing on the BMW partnership and technical specifications, while outlining the lack of direct availability in the Indian market.

Boston Dynamics Inc. remains one of the most recognizable names in advanced robotics, known for pushing the boundaries of locomotion and manipulation. However, the narrative surrounding the company has shifted significantly since its acquisition by Hyundai Motor Company. This report evaluates the company's current product portfolio, specifically focusing on the Spot quadruped and the Atlas humanoid robot, grounded in shipping hardware data rather than concept videos.

This article evaluates the current state of inspection drones available in India, prioritizing shipping hardware over marketing claims. It analyzes ideaForge’s Tejas ecosystem against Skydio’s autonomy capabilities, offering landed cost estimates and regulatory context for infrastructure inspection use cases.
