🤖 NEO — the “helpful robot,” not the scary one
1X just opened preorders for NEO, a humanoid made to handle chores — cleaning, fetching, door-opening. It’s 168 cm tall, 30 kg light, and can lift 70 kg — basically your polite, buff roommate. 😅
Powered by Tendon Drive, it moves with muscle-like cables, not gears. Brain: Nvidia Jetson Thor with an LLM onboard — it chats, remembers context, and even spots ingredients (“Flour and eggs? Pancake time!”).
Runs 4 hours per charge, docks itself, comes in 3 colors. Price: $20 K or $500/mo.
Looks amazing — but until NEO proves it won’t fold the cat with the laundry, we’ll wait for 2026 before trusting it with chores. 🧺
