1 reports · 1 sources
Lightberry's Lumi humanoid robot has received conditional approval from the U.S. government and obtained an FCC waiver from the Covered List, which originally prohibited new foreign-made robots from being sold in the United States. Lightberry claims Lumi is the first humanoid robot to receive conditional approval from the U.S. government. The approval comes with conditions: sensors, computing and software must all be replaced with Lightberry's own products, the body, head and hands must be manufactured in the United States, with the remaining parts to follow later. Lumi is a 4-foot-2-inch-tall yellow interactive robot priced at $39,990, with shipments planned for 2026.
