A fully autonomous home robot demo picks up and puts away clothing with a 97% success rate on unseen garments, using SLAM + JEV for localization, Astra + PI0.5 + collision detection for grasping, and SLAM + motion replay for stashing — about 2 minutes per garment. Chris Paxton expects a wave of affordable wheeled home robots like this next year.
