Vertical Integration

From loading dock to your living room.

Semi-trucks pull up to our warehouse dock doors with precision parts and Revo1 motors. Every single robot is assembled by hand, powered on, calibrated, and stress-tested before crating.

Step 01

01. Direct Ingestion & Clean Warehousing

Precision parts, custom Revo1 motors, lithium battery cells, and 3D lattice polymer matrices arrive daily at our Hayward loading docks for barcode verification and robotic inspection.

Step 02

02. Tendon Drive Sub-Assembly

Specialized technicians thread ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene tendons through articulated joints, calibrating tension and backdrivability within 2% tolerance.

Step 03

03. Cortex Integration & Power-On

The 1X Cortex compute unit, 842 Wh power architecture, and dual stereo fisheye vision sensors are docked and wired into the central spine enclosure.

Step 04

04. Standing Up & First Gait Steps

Every robot powers on and performs its maiden autonomous calibration. Locomotion controllers calibrate zero points, gait balance, and compliance on the test track.

Step 05

05. Ingress, Acoustic & HIC Crash Audit

100% of units undergo an anechoic chamber acoustic test (< 22 dB), hand IP68 water submersion check, and safety impact compliance verification before crating.
