Robo Inc. Launches US Humanoid Robot Integrator; China Spy Law Still Follows Hardware
Robo Inc. launched as a US-based humanoid robot integrator to address the compliance gap created by the FCC's July 28 decision blocking Chinese-made advanced robots, sourcing competitive hardware globally and performing US-based assembly, security hardening, and testing. The company's model exploits the massive price gap between Chinese robots ($13,500) and US-made alternatives ($250,000+), though security experts note that China's National Intelligence Law creates structural legal risks that no integration layer can fully mitigate for defense and government buyers.
