Key facts

Phantom production humanoid specs (primary Foundation)

Foundation Future Industries' Phantom product page lists Phantom as its first production humanoid with height 5'11" (1.8 m), weight 176 lbs (80 kg), payload capacity 88.2 lbs (40 kg), 29 degrees of freedom, and speed 1.7 m/s. Treat dimensions and performance as company-stated (Foundation)

Cycloid actuator claims (primary Foundation)

Foundation states Phantom uses proprietary cycloid actuators with max peak torque 160 Nm, max back-driving torque under 1.0 Nm, response time under 10 ms, and listed wrist / shoulder / leg torque figures (20 Nm / 119 Nm / over 160 Nm). Marketing claims of hydraulic-like performance with electric efficiency should be treated as company-stated (Foundation)

Phantom page prints 9 rad/s and 48 V

Foundation's Phantom page prints actuator speed of 9 rad/s at 48 V and 12 rad/s at 72 V, and voltage of 48 V / 72 V. The stored torque sentence is not this actuator-speed cell (Phantom).
