FlashBot Arm
Pudu's FlashBot delivery robot with two liftable 7-DoF arms and Pudu's own DH11 dexterous hands added, so it can press lift buttons, swipe cards and open doors while delivering in hotels, offices and hospitals. Pudu calls it a semi-humanoid; it has a wheeled base, a closed delivery compartment and a touchscreen rather than a distinct head. Height is from the listed dimensions; the 15 kg payload and 8 h no-load runtime are maker figures.
