    Relevant because dumb protectionism. This is a followup to the chinese humanoid robot ban article from a few days ago. It extends well beyond humanoids and China. Even roombas are impacted. Also every country is banned. Yes this means if you are an American robot company and you source your components from outside the country (even say Japan) you don’t get to sell new devices

    Edit

    Same fcc notice also bans all future foreign inverters so rip solar
