Work
Twelve projects, from one board to a whole robot.
Each one says where it started and how far it went, in the words of its own scope. Plus one we can't show yet.
Stage reached
How far each one went.
Six reached a prototype, four reached the field, and two went on to a low-volume build. Volume production goes to manufacturing partners.
