## Summary

The FCC placed foreign-made autonomous robot devices on a controlled list on July 28, forcing new models to win conditional approval or US manufacturing to sell in America. The EU's preliminary anti-dumping disclosure proposes duties of 45.6% to 53.3% on Chinese robot lawn mowers, while Ecovacs' and Roborock's year-end inventories rose about 66% and 136%.
