Why robot makers choose it
Our readCompanies buy Spot to inspect plants and buildings, and the inspection is only useful if the results reach the people who fix things. Orbit does that hand-off, which makes the robots easier to justify and keeps customers within Boston Dynamics' range.
This is our reasoning from the public facts. No maker has confirmed it.
