Add\nmore only if a robot has a genuinely distinct, sourced attribute — do not\npad with unsourced fields. `tactile_skin` and `battery_swappable` are\nboolean `value`s; `compute` is free text (e.g. \"NVIDIA Jetson Thor\");\n`locomotion` is an enum `value`, one of `bipedal | wheeled | hybrid`; the\nrest (`actuator_torque_nm` — peak/max torque in Nm, `battery_wh`,\n`charge_time_min`) are numbers. All still follow the `{ value, status,\nsource }` shape above.\n\n## Power, software, and buying (top-level, all optional)\n\nThese sit alongside `specs` at the top level, not inside it, because each\nhas its own shape.\n\n`sdk` is a single object (not an array): `{ open_source: boolean, ros:\n\"none\"|\"ros1\"|\"ros2\", url, status, source }`. `url` points at the SDK\nitself (a repo, a docs page) — `source` is the evidence for the claim\n(open-source status, ROS support), which is often the same page but kept\nseparate so a docs URL and an evidence quote don't have to collide.\n\n`simulation` is an optional top-level research record. Its review makes a\ntargeted search explicit without turning “not found” into “unsupported”:\n\n```json\n{\n \"review\": {\n \"status\": \"found|not_confirmed\",\n \"checked\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\",\n \"urls\": [\"https://...\"],\n \"reason\": \"...\"\n },\n \"artifacts\": [{\n \"id\": \"unique-id\",\n \"format\": \"urdf|mjcf|usd|other\",\n \"variant\": \"concrete robot variant\",\n \"provenance\": \"official|community\",\n \"url\": \"https://...\",\n \"revision\": \"release, tag, commit, or dated revision; otherwise null\",\n \"license\": null,\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"https://...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\", \"variant\": \"concrete robot variant\" },\n \"compatibility\": [{\n \"simulator\": \"mujoco|isaac_sim|gazebo|other\",\n \"level\": \"documented|tested\",\n \"version\": null,\n \"notes\": \"optional context\",\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"https://...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\", \"variant\": \"concrete robot variant\" }\n }]\n }]\n}\n```\n\nBoth review states require a calendar-valid `checked`, at least one unique\nHTTP(S) URL that was searched, and a reason. `found` requires at least one\nartifact; `not_confirmed` requires an empty `artifacts` array and means only\nthat the targeted search found no confirmed artefact. It never means the\nrobot lacks simulation support.\n\nArtifact ids are unique within a robot. The `revision` key is required. Its\nvalue identifies the inspected release, tag, commit, or dated model revision,\nor is `null` when the public artifact has no confirmed revision. `license` is either\n`{ \"name\": \"...\", \"url\": \"https://...\" }` or `null` when no licence was\nconfirmed; booleans are invalid. Each artifact and each simulator claim has\nits own source under the shared source contract. Its `source.variant` must\nequal the artifact's `variant`. Repository presence alone does not establish\nsimulator compatibility.\n\n`documented` means the cited source explicitly documents compatibility.\n`tested` means the integration was executed and additionally requires a\nsupported source review whose `reason` describes the test context, plus\nnon-empty `notes`. Validation and builds never download or execute an\nexternal simulation artefact.\n\n`actuator_architecture` is an optional top-level research record. It stores\nonly exact-variant actuator facts and keeps separately sourced joint groups\nseparate:\n\n```json\n{\n \"review\": {\n \"status\": \"found|not_confirmed\",\n \"checked\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\",\n \"urls\": [\"https://...\"],\n \"reason\": \"...\"\n },\n \"groups\": [{\n \"id\": \"unique-id\",\n \"scope\": \"joints or robot area covered by this claim\",\n \"variant\": \"concrete robot variant\",\n \"drive\": \"electric|hydraulic|pneumatic|other|null\",\n \"transmission\": \"harmonic|planetary|cycloidal|tendon|belt|direct|other|null\",\n \"motion\": \"rotary|linear|other|null\",\n \"architecture\": \"quasi_direct_drive|series_elastic|parallel_elastic|other|null\",\n \"status\": \"claimed|demonstrated\",\n \"source\": {\n \"url\": \"https://...\",\n \"quote\": \"...\",\n \"accessed\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\",\n \"variant\": \"concrete robot variant\"\n },\n \"notes\": \"required when any property is other\"\n }]\n}\n```\n\nThe research review follows the same checked-date, unique HTTP(S) URL, and\nreason rules as `simulation`. `found` requires at least one group;\n`not_confirmed` requires an empty `groups` array and records only the result of\nthe targeted search. Group ids are unique within a robot. `scope` and\n`variant` are non-empty. All four nullable actuator property keys are required,\nand at least one must be known. `other` requires a non-empty `notes` value.\nEvery group has its own source under the shared source contract. The source\nmust have an HTTP(S) URL, a calendar-valid `accessed`, and a `source.variant`\nequal to the group's `variant`. Torque remains a separate measured\nspecification and is never inferred from this record.\n\n`warranty` is an array, because coverage differs by region and reseller:\n`[{ months, region, source, status }]`. Record one entry per region/seller\ncombination that has its own source; do not average or guess a global\nnumber.\n\n`order_type` is a single object, same shape as a spec entry: `{ value,\nsource, status }`, where `value` is one of `cart | quote | waitlist |\npreorder | none` — `cart` means direct checkout with a price shown,\n`quote` means a sales conversation is required before a price is given,\n`waitlist` and `preorder` are self-explanatory, `none` means the robot is\nnot offered for sale at all (research-only, internal use).\n\n`export_restrictions` is an array, `[{ jurisdiction, detail, source,\nstatus }]`. Only record an entry when the source is a hard, named\ndecision (an export-control ruling, a government notice, a manufacturer\nstatement about which countries it will not ship to) — not a rumor, not\nan analyst's guess about where sanctions might apply.\n\n`delivery.timeline[].sector` is an optional enum on each timeline event,\none of `automotive | logistics | manufacturing | research | consumer |\nhealthcare | other` — the industry of the customer or deployment named in\nthat event, when known.\n\n**Why lease prices, business financials, and scores are not tracked:**\nthis site records claimed/demonstrated/shipped facts with a primary\nsource behind each one. Lease pricing and financing terms are\nnegotiated per-deal and rarely published with a source that applies\ngenerally; recording one publicly quoted lease rate would misrepresent it\nas the going rate. Manufacturer revenue, funding, and valuation are\nbusiness facts about a company, not the robot, and belong in financial\npress rather than a robot spec sheet. A composite \"score\" would require\nweighting unlike properties (height against battery life against SDK\nmaturity) by some formula this site would have to invent and defend —\nthat is an opinion, not a sourced fact, and it's exactly the kind of\nreview-site judgment this project exists to avoid.\n\n## Capabilities\n\n`capabilities` is an optional array, one entry per demonstrated or claimed\nability:\n\n```json\n{ \"id\": \"stairs\", \"status\": \"demonstrated\", \"autonomy\": \"autonomous\", \"source\": { \"url\": \"...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"2026-09-20\", \"timestamp\": \"01:23\" }, \"note\": \"\" }\n```\n\n`id` must be one of the fixed ids in `data/capabilities.json` (each with a\nlabel and short definition there); an unknown id fails validation.\n`status` is the same `claimed | demonstrated | shipped` used everywhere else\n(`shipped` means a named customer is shown using it, not just the\nmanufacturer). `source.timestamp` is optional, `mm:ss`, for pointing at the\nmoment in a video. With the evidence-review fields below, a supported video\nrequires a real segment start, the concrete robot variant, and\n`review.method: \"video\"`. `source.timestamp_end` may add the segment end and\nmust be later than the start. `note` is optional free text.\n\n`autonomy` is required and is one of `teleoperated | scripted | autonomous |\nunknown`. A `demonstrated` capability with `autonomy: unknown` is allowed —\nmost manufacturer clips simply don't say. But `autonomy: autonomous` is only\nallowed when the source explicitly says so (a named engineer or the\nmanufacturer states no human/teleoperator was driving it), or an independent\nparty observed it directly. A manufacturer highlight reel that shows a\ncapability without saying who or what controlled it must be recorded as\n`unknown`, not `autonomous` — silence is not a claim.\n\n## Media\n\n`media` is an optional array, at most 3 entries per robot:\n\n```json\n{\n \"type\": \"photo|drawing|patent\",\n \"file\": \"media//.jpg|png|svg\",\n \"caption\": \"...\",\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"2026-09-21\" },\n \"license\": {\n \"name\": \"manufacturer press kit|USPTO design patent|EUIPO RCD|WIPO|CC BY 4.0|other\",\n \"terms_url\": \"...\",\n \"note\": \"...\"\n },\n \"patent_number\": \"USD1000000S\",\n \"credit\": \"© Manufacturer\",\n \"depicts_current\": false\n}\n```\n\n`depicts_current` is optional and defaults to `true`. Set to `false` when the\nimage shows an earlier generation or a different variant than this record;\nsuch media is kept for attribution and history but never used as the\nrecord's product image or thumbnail.\n\n**Licensed imagery is never evidence.** The robot page shows this section as\n\"Imagery\" — patent drawings, press-kit photos, or Creative Commons photos —\neach labelled with its type (patent drawing / press photo / CC photo) before\nthe credit. A photo or patent drawing shows what a robot looks like; it does\nnot demonstrate a spec, a capability, or a delivery. Nothing in `media` may\nbe cited as the `source` for a `claimed`, `demonstrated`, or `shipped` value\nelsewhere in the record — those still need their own sourced quote.\n\n**No hotlinking.** The file must be downloaded and committed under\n`data/media//`; `media[].file` never points at an external URL.\n`media[].source.url` records where it was obtained, for attribution and\nverification, not for serving the image.\n\n**Only with an explicit license or a public patent.** Do not add an image\n\"because it's on the manufacturer's website\" — a press kit expressly\noffered for editorial/press use, a public patent drawing (design patents\nare a public record; the drawing itself is not copyrighted the way a photo\nis), or an explicitly CC-licensed image. When in doubt, leave it out.\n\n`type` is one of `photo | drawing | patent`. `file` must be a path under\n`data/media/` that exists on disk. `license.name` and `source` are always\nrequired. `patent_number` is required when `type` is `patent` and should\nbe the number as printed on the patent (e.g. a USPTO design patent\n`USD1,000,000 S`). `credit` is optional free text for a byline. Images are\nresized at build time to a max width of 800px before being copied into\n`dist/media/`.\n\n## Promises\n\n`promises` is an optional array, one entry per dated commitment a\nmanufacturer made about its own robot — a delivery, a production volume, a\nlaunch, an \"early access\" window — in its own words:\n\n```json\n{\n \"id\": \"-\",\n \"claim\": \"Full-scale Optimus production\",\n \"target\": \"2027\",\n \"made_on\": \"2026-04-22\",\n \"quote\": \"...\",\n \"source_url\": \"https://...\",\n \"source_name\": \"Tesla Q1 2026 earnings call\",\n \"accessed\": \"2026-09-27\",\n \"status\": \"open\",\n \"revised_to\": \"\",\n \"met_evidence\": \"https://...\"\n}\n```\n\n`id` is unique within the robot's own `promises` array (not globally),\nkebab-case, e.g. `tesla-optimus-full-scale-production`. `target` is the\nmanufacturer's own stated date, in whatever grain they gave it: an ISO\ndate (`2027-06-15`), a month (`2026-11`), a quarter (`2026-Q4`), a half\n(`2027-H1`), or a bare year (`2027`). `made_on` is the date the promise was\nmade (not the date it was recorded); `accessed` is the date the source was\nchecked, same convention as everywhere else, and must be on or after\n`made_on`. `quote` is a literal quote (max 300 characters, same rule as\n`source.quote` elsewhere) of the manufacturer making the claim — this is a\n`claimed`-tier record by construction, so there is no separate `status`\nfield for evidence tier the way specs have; `promises[].status` instead\ntracks the promise's own outcome.\n\n`status` is one of:\n\n- `open` — the deadline has not yet passed and nothing has resolved it.\n- `met` — a named delivery/production/launch happened that satisfies the\n claim; record the evidence URL in `met_evidence`.\n- `missed` — the deadline passed with no resolving evidence, and nobody\n has recorded a replacement promise for it.\n- `revised` — the manufacturer replaced this promise with a new one before\n or after the deadline; `revised_to` names the new promise's `id`.\n\nNote that `status: \"open\"` is not updated automatically when its deadline\npasses — the record stays `open` until someone records the outcome as\n`met`, `missed`, or `revised`. The rendered page derives a display-only\n`overdue` state for an `open` promise past its deadline (see\n`tools/promises.js#effectiveStatus`); that derived state is never written\nback to the data.\n\n**Deadline rule** (`tools/promises.js#deadlineOf`): a bare year deadlines\non December 31 of that year; a quarter deadlines on the last day of that\nquarter (Q1 03-31, Q2 06-30, Q3 09-30, Q4 12-31); a half deadlines on the\nlast day of that half (H1 06-30, H2 12-31); a month deadlines on that\nmonth's last calendar day; an ISO date is its own deadline.\n`daysLeft(target, today)` is the deadline minus today, in days — negative\nmeans the deadline has passed.\n\n## Source object\n\nEvery value — spec, price, or timeline event — carries a `source`:\n\n| Field | Required | Notes |\n|---|---|---|\n| `url` | yes | link to the primary evidence |\n| `quote` | yes | literal quote, max 300 characters |\n| `accessed` | yes | `YYYY-MM-DD`, date the source was checked |\n| `archive` | no | archive.org (or similar) permalink |\n| `media_type` | no | `article | video | paper | repository | documentation | unknown` |\n| `publisher_type` | no | `official | independent | community | unknown` |\n| `variant` | no | concrete robot/model variant shown or described; required for every supported review |\n| `published` | no | `YYYY-MM-DD`, publication date when known |\n| `evidence_date` | no | `YYYY-MM-DD`, event or observation date when distinct from publication |\n| `timestamp` | no | `mm:ss`, start of a real video segment |\n| `timestamp_end` | no | `mm:ss`, optional segment end later than `timestamp` |\n| `review` | no | evidence review object described below |\n\nThe optional `review` object records what was inspected for this specific\nclaim:\n\n```json\n{\n \"status\": \"supported|insufficient|inaccessible|conflicting|unreviewed\",\n \"checked\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\",\n \"reason\": \"...\",\n \"method\": \"text|video|physical|unknown\"\n}\n```\n\n`checked` is required except for `unreviewed` and must be a real calendar\ndate. `reason` is required for\n`insufficient`, `inaccessible`, and `conflicting`. `supported` means only\nthat the quoted or observed evidence supports this claim; it does not make a\nmanufacturer source independent and does not prove a claim universally true.\nThe claim's `status` and a capability's `autonomy` remain separate judgments.\nAdding or changing a review never promotes either field.\n\nA supported review requires an explicit, known `media_type`, a concrete\nreview method (not `unknown`), and a non-empty `variant`. A supported video review additionally requires\n`media_type: \"video\"`, `method: \"video\"`, and a real `timestamp`. The video\nmethod is invalid for every other media type. If `media_type` explicitly\nnames a non-video medium, timestamps are invalid. `media_type: \"unknown\"`\ncan only carry an unresolved review. A video that has not been\nwatched at a specific segment stays `unreviewed`, `insufficient`, or\n`inaccessible`; `00:00` must never be used as a placeholder.\n\nAll new fields are additive. Existing source objects remain valid so legacy\ngaps can be reviewed progressively instead of being filled with invented\nmetadata.\n\n## Price entries\n\n`price_history` is an array, oldest first:\n\n```json\n{ \"date\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\", \"amount\": , \"currency\": \"USD\", \"variant\": \"string\", \"status\": \"claimed|demonstrated|shipped\", \"source\": { ... } }\n```\n\n## Delivery\n\n`delivery.status` is the robot's current overall standing: `shipped`,\n`demonstrated`, `claimed`, or `announced-only`. `delivery.timeline` is an\narray of dated events:\n\n```json\n{ \"date\": \"YYYY-MM-DD\", \"event\": \"announced|first-demo|preorders-open|first-customer-delivery|volume-estimate\", \"detail\": \"string\", \"quantity_min\": null, \"quantity_max\": null, \"source\": { ... } }\n```\n\nOnly include an event once it has real evidence. Do not invent a\n`first-customer-delivery` event to fill a gap — if it hasn't happened, the\ntimeline simply stops at the last real event, and `delivery.status` reflects\nthat (`claimed` or `demonstrated`, not `shipped`).\n\n## The three statuses, precisely\n\n### claimed\nThe manufacturer's own words: a specs page on the manufacturer's domain, a\npress release, a regulatory/investor filing, or an interview with a named\nperson and a date, published by the manufacturer or a credible outlet\nquoting them directly. Blog posts, \"reviews\", or news articles that merely\nrepeat a number without citing the manufacturer directly do **not** qualify\nas the source for a `claimed` value — trace it back to the manufacturer.\n\n### demonstrated\nAn uncut video or live demonstration, run by an independent party (press,\ncustomer, researcher), OR a manufacturer-produced video in which the\nproperty in question is visibly performed with a timestamp (e.g. a battery\nruntime demonstrated across a visibly continuous, timestamped clip). CGI\nrenders, heavily cut marketing reels, and \"coming soon\" trailers do not\nqualify.\n\n### shipped\nA named customer, with photographic or video evidence of a physical unit in\ntheir possession, plus at least one of: an invoice, a serial number, an\nindependent unboxing, or a customs/import record. A signed contract,\npreorder, deposit, or a \"shipping in Q4\" statement is not shipped — it is\n`claimed` (or `demonstrated` if a working unit was shown).\n\n## Contradicting sources\n\nIf two credible sources disagree on a value (different height, different\ndelivery date, etc.), do not silently pick one. Record both, each with its\nown `source` and `accessed` date, and add a short note in `notes` explaining\nthe discrepancy. The comparison table on the homepage links to whichever\nvalue is most recently sourced, but the robot page must show both.\n\n## Quantities\n\nDelivered/produced quantities are almost never precisely disclosed. Use\n`quantity_min` / `quantity_max` as a range, each end backed by its own\nsource where possible (e.g. \"at least 500\" from one filing, \"fewer than\n2,000\" inferred from another). If no credible number exists at all, omit\nthe timeline event entirely rather than guessing.\n\n## Events and results under fixed rules\n\nOne JSON file per competition event in `data/events/.json`. ``\nmust match the `slug` field exactly.\n\n```json\n{\n \"slug\": \"world-humanoid-robot-games-2025\",\n \"name\": \"World Humanoid Robot Games 2025\",\n \"organizer\": \"World Humanoid Robot Sports Federation\",\n \"date\": \"2025-08-15\",\n \"location\": \"Beijing, China (National Speed Skating Oval)\",\n \"rules_url\": \"https://www.whrgoc.com/\",\n \"autonomy_rule\": {\n \"value\": \"mixed\",\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"2026-09-21\" }\n },\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"2026-09-21\" }\n}\n```\n\n`autonomy_rule.value` is one of `autonomous | teleoperated | mixed |\nunknown` and describes how the event as a whole is run (e.g. \"mixed\" when\nautonomous entries get a scoring bonus but most competitors are remote\ncontrolled) -- it is not a claim about any single robot. `source` backs\nthe event's own facts (date, location, organizer).\n\nA robot record may carry an optional `results` array, one entry per\nrecorded outcome at a tracked event:\n\n```json\n\"results\": [\n {\n \"event\": \"world-humanoid-robot-games-2025\",\n \"discipline\": \"1500 m\",\n \"result\": \"6:34\",\n \"rank\": 1,\n \"team\": \"Unitree\",\n \"unit\": \"time\",\n \"autonomy\": \"teleoperated\",\n \"source\": { \"url\": \"...\", \"quote\": \"...\", \"accessed\": \"2026-09-21\" }\n }\n]\n```\n\n`event` must match a slug in `data/events/`. `rank` is an integer (1 =\nfirst place) or `null` when no ranking applies (e.g. a solo timed attempt).\n`autonomy` defaults to the event's own `autonomy_rule.value`; it may be\nrecorded differently for one result only when the source specifically says\nso for that run (e.g. one entrant ran autonomously in an event otherwise\ndominated by teleoperation) -- that source is the same `result.source`\nalready required on every entry.\n\n**Why a fixed-rules result is the strongest demonstrated-layer evidence,\nand still not `shipped`:** a manufacturer's own demo video can be cut,\nstaged, retried until it works, or narrated to imply more than happened. A\nresult at a competition with a published ruleset and an independent jury\ncannot: the discipline, the clock, and the judging are fixed before the\nrobot shows up, and every entrant is measured the same way. That is why\nthis is the strongest evidence this site records short of a customer using\nthe robot in production. It is still not `shipped`: winning a race or a\nmatch is not a named customer running the robot in their own operation,\nand no continuous, independent, cross-manufacturer benchmark exists (NIST's\nHumanoid Robot Baseline Performance Benchmark, still under development,\nwill publish only results aggregated across manufacturers, not per-robot,\nper-run data) -- competition results are therefore reported alongside, not\nfolded into, the `claimed / demonstrated / shipped` ladder.\n\n## Validation\n\n`tools/validate.js` enforces: required fields present, `status` is exactly\none of the three values, every value-bearing object has a non-empty\n`source.url`, `source.quote` (≤300 chars) and `source.accessed`\n(`YYYY-MM-DD`), and `slug` matches the filename. For `capabilities`: `id`\nmust be in `data/capabilities.json` and `autonomy` must be one of the four\nvalues. Optional evidence fields use the enums and relationships documented\nunder Source object; timestamps are `mm:ss`, a segment end follows its start,\nand supported video evidence requires video review, variant, and timestamp.\nFor `results`:\n`event` must match a slug under `data/events/`, `rank` must be an integer\nor `null`, and `autonomy` must be one of `autonomous | teleoperated |\nmixed | unknown`. Event records under `data/events/` are validated the\nsame way (required fields, dated fields, sourced `autonomy_rule`).\n\nFor the power/software/buying fields: `specs.locomotion.value` must be one\nof `bipedal | wheeled | hybrid`; `sdk.ros` must be one of `none | ros1 |\nros2` and `sdk.open_source`/`sdk.url`/`sdk.status`/`sdk.source` are all\nrequired when `sdk` is present; each `warranty[]` entry requires\n`months`, `region`, `status`, and `source`; `order_type.value` must be one\nof `cart | quote | waitlist | preorder | none`; each\n`export_restrictions[]` entry requires `jurisdiction`, `detail`, `status`,\nand `source`; `delivery.timeline[].sector`, when present, must be one of\n`automotive | logistics | manufacturing | research | consumer |\nhealthcare | other`.\n\nFor `simulation`: the research review, artifact cardinality, unique ids,\nformats, provenance, HTTP(S) URLs, revisions, licence shape, concrete variant\nmatching, compatibility source, simulator and evidence level are validated.\n`tested` additionally requires a supported review and written test context.\n\nFor `actuator_architecture`: the research review, group cardinality, unique\nids, non-empty scope and variant, four required nullable actuator properties,\nat least one known property, `other` notes, claim status, source URL/date, and\nexact group/source variant matching are validated.\n\nFor `promises[]`: `id`, `claim`, `source_url`, `source_name` are required\nnon-empty strings; `target` must parse under the deadline rule above\n(`tools/promises.js#isValidTarget`); `made_on` and `accessed` must be\n`YYYY-MM-DD` with `made_on` on or before `accessed`; `quote` is required,\nmax 300 characters; `status` must be one of `open | met | missed |\nrevised`; `revised_to`, when present, must match another promise's `id`\nwithin the same robot record; `met_evidence`, when present, must be a\nnon-empty string.\n\n## Independence\n\nhumanoidrecord.com accepts no money, samples, or sponsorship from robot\nmanufacturers or their investors.
