@asimovinc The docs estimate 100+ hours of assembly, if that’s correct. One of the most interesting things about ASIMOV is how clearly it shows just how complex humanoids still are.
Robot hands got serious.

🔵 Tesla Optimus V3: 22 DOF, motors in the forearm.
🔵 BrainCo Revo 3: 21 DOF, full-palm touch sensing.
