Clone Alpha
Clone Alpha is a planned 279-unit run of Clone Robotics' musculoskeletal android, which moves with water-powered artificial muscles instead of motors. The Protoclone prototype (200+ degrees of freedom, 1,000+ Myofibers) is real hardware, but public videos show it hanging from a gantry, not standing or walking. There is no price, no deposit and no delivery date. The 'pre-order' page is a reservation form that still promises 2025.
