## Summary

Using a real-world test report on SenseTime's Astra as its starting point, the article notes that Astra is outstanding at the planning layer (100% on LIBERO-Long++, 81.9% on RoboDojo), but real-machine operation exposes an architectural break between cloud inference's second-level latency and millisecond-level force-feedback closed loops; stacking bowls took an average of about 131 minutes and cost about 19 US dollars.
