Deployment
Amazon Astro at Seattle
Home companion robot using Intelligent Motion autonomous SLAM navigation (avoids people/pets/stairs) with a periscope camera for patrol. Honest status (vvc): consumer Astro remains an invite-only 'Day 1 Edition', never a broad retail release; the commercial 'Astro for Business' variant was discontinued July 2024 after ~7 months. Destinations/patrols are human-set.
