Does anyone know if there are videos of the robots in action? The GIFs are choppy and don't show enough

That was pretty slick.

Although those robots sure do look expensive. For now. But once you build out the software, the replication costs are minimal. And the robotic machinery will eventually get cheaper, when mass produced.

This video was released just before the virus hit. So it’s perfect for our solitary and isolated post-pandemic world.

Not to mention that it seems that Chinese have higher trust with robots https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3033143/almost-90...

Whearas I assume in US, "human touch" is still preferable, e.g. Preferring human operator vs robovoice.
