Editorial summaries

Clone Protoclone

Clone Robotics is accepting reservations for the Clone Alpha, a limited first edition of 279 units, through its own website. No purchase price has been published. The reservation availability is verified from the maker's page; the price is not disclosed.

Reflex

Reflex Robotics' Reflex is a wheeled mobile-manipulator humanoid for warehouse and logistics operations: a sub-2-foot wheeled base, dual arms (25 pounds per arm, 50 pounds combined), an adjustable spine reaching floor to high shelf, a 16-plus-hour battery, and swappable three-finger grippers with suction. The verified-vs-claimed point is the autonomy posture: Reflex is designed for teleoperated deployment with a learning-from-demonstrations path toward autonomy, not an autonomous worker today. DEPLOY records it at pilot maturity with one verified deployment. As industrial and logistics equipment it has no consumer price, and its wheeled base distinguishes it from the bipedal-humanoid cohort.
