CAPITAL & EVIDENCE
Shipped
No deployment evidence on file
A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against University of California at Berkeley.
In Research & Prototype, Saildrone, HEBI Robotics and NASA have deployment evidence on file.
Add a deployment →Salto-1P is a small monopedal jumping robot developed at UC Berkeley’s Biomimetic Millisystems Lab, not a product of an independent robotics company. It was created for extreme jumping locomotion research and can hop vertically and horizontally using aerodynamic thrusters and other control systems.

33.28 RoboScore + 0.00 Momentum· Weak evidence
Products, Range, Traction set the number — the three factors present for every company. Activity, Attention, Readiness describe the brand but never move it. A value we don't have reads —, never zero. Momentum is independently collected news coverage, worth at most 15 points and never a deduction — a maker we have heard nothing about keeps its full RoboScore. Claiming or paying moves nothing.
