Why it matters
Builders following Asimov 1 can inspect the open-source repository and check the company's sim-to-real dance claim for themselves. The claim is based on a demo and an earlier build-diary video, so readers should review the repository and the supporting material before drawing conclusions about the robot's abilities. Updates from the company that add detail to the repository or the demo are the next things to watch.
