…sensors including stereo cameras, and worked with T-Mobile on 5G. This machine can go into environments where it's better not to have humans, such as height or in a nuclear power plant. The XT can be operated as an avatar with virtually no latency to perform highly dexterous tasks. There is tremendous interest from power generation, construction, infrastructure maintenance and repair, and oil and gas. My personal gut instinct is that the Guardian XT will be an even bigger hit in its early hears than the XO. There are no issues of training operators or walking around with it. We'll…
