Notes
- battery_wh omitted (2026-09-21): EngineAI's own PM01 page gives charging power/voltage (54.6V/4.5A) but not a capacity in Ah or Wh, so Wh cannot be derived from a primary source; no manufacturer-published Wh figure was found.
- No sourced SDK/ROS or warranty information for PM01 could be found on en.engineai.com.cn (searched 2026-09-21); both fields left out rather than guessed.
- The front-flip video (2025-02-23) is manufacturer-produced marketing footage; it is recorded here under 'demonstrated' because the maneuver is a specific, visibly performed physical feat rather than a spec claim, but no independent (non-EngineAI) uncut footage was located during this build to confirm it as an unedited take.
- Front-flip autonomy determination (2026-09-20): EngineAI's own statement on the flip describes only the *training* method -- 'By leveraging optical motion capture to collect extensive human motion data, it integrates end-to-end neural network learning with adversarial networks to achieve rapid evolution in a simulated environment. It thrives in various complex scenarios, continually refining itself through trial and error' (New Atlas, https://newatlas.com/ai-humanoids/worlds-first-front-flip-humanoid-robot-engineai/, accessed 2026-09-20) -- i.e. the flip is executed by a learned (sim-trained) policy, which suggests it runs onboard rather than being joystick-piloted move-by-move. But no EngineAI engineer or independent party is quoted stating explicitly that no human/teleoperator was in the loop during the filmed take, so per this dataset's strict rule this cannot be marked 'autonomous' or 'scripted' from the sources found in this pass; no capability entry was added for the flip itself since no fixed capability id in data/capabilities.json matches a single acrobatic maneuver (the 'run' id requires a sustained gait, not one flip), so this determination lives here in notes rather than in a capabilities entry.
- EngineAI's own site (en.engineai.com.cn) only lists height, DOF and peak torque density; weight, battery runtime, walking speed and price were sourced from The Robot Report's 2024-12-27 launch coverage instead.
- No named-customer shipment evidence (invoice, serial number, unboxing, customs record) was found during this build; delivery.status therefore stays 'demonstrated' rather than 'shipped'.
- Shipped-bar research (2026-09-20): EngineAI's own claim is ~100 units delivered in five months including "Shenzhen police patrol support", which would be a strong named-customer claim if independently verified -- but this pass found no independent photo/video of a PM01 physically in Shenzhen police possession, nor any consumer unboxing video with a named buyer. Not upgraded to shipped.
