## Summary

Hugging Face says its Reachy Wireless can be placed on a $149 hoverboard and driven from a phone, with a live view of what the robot sees. The new iOS and Android apps remove the need for a computer, and the robot can also run autonomously with an AI harness. New orders ship in a few weeks, after more than 10,000 Reachy Minis have already shipped.
