Reachy 2
An open-source upper-body humanoid on an omnidirectional wheeled base. It has two 7-DoF arms that each lift about 3 kg, and its height adjusts from 136 to 166 cm. Labs such as Cornell and Carnegie Mellon buy it for embodied-AI research, often teleoperated in VR. It is a research tool and is not meant for homes.

Does a remote human drive it?
Yes, remote operators
VR teleoperation is a core feature and is used for data collection. Autonomous behavior depends on the policies each lab runs.

Unknown
Sold to US universities, but we could not confirm an FCC ID. It is a French-made mobile robot over 4.4 lb, so any new model would fall under the 2026-07-28 Covered List listing.
