Home robots are leaving stage demos and entering the only test that really matters: ordinary family life.
X Square Robot is starting to move its next-gen home robot into real households.

A kitchen is not a controlled environment of a factory floor. it is a moving negotiation between habits, clutter, pets, children, half-finished chores, and objects that never return to the same place twice.
That is where Moravec’s paradox shows up: tasks that feel effortless to humans, like picking up clutter, avoiding pets, or judging what belongs where, are often brutally hard for robots.
Would you bring a robot with daily chores?
