    According to an exclusive Leiphone report, Orbbec decided internally in mid-September to cut its lawn-mower robot ODM business, with cumulative shipments of only a few thousand units, far below expectations. The report attributes this to three factors: new FCC rules raising the barrier to entry in North America, an overly crowded track, and major customers' shipment volumes being insufficient to support the ODM product line; the visual perception module product line for outdoor robots is unaffected, and the company is redirecting resources to embodied-intelligence data-collection devices.
