Astribot began North American sales of its $18,000 T1 robot at IROS 2026 in Pittsburgh, according to a robotics roundup published on note. The platform combines cable-driven mechanisms with the company's Lumo-2 AI model, an embedded operating system, and software interfaces for developers. The robot stands 1.55m tall, weighs 66kg, and has 23 degrees of freedom excluding its end-effector, with a payload capacity of 5kg per arm. It can autonomously pack small items into a backpack, but complex household chores require additional training.
