Component atlas

The actuator atlas

Interactive exhibits from the component economics research. Each one is built from teardowns, filings and direct factory pricing, and labels what a figure is worth before you decide what to do with it.

01 / joint map

Inside a humanoid

What each joint must survive, and which actuator route each platform takes there.

02 / exploded view

Inside an actuator

The module pulled apart: motor, encoder, reduction, and the two routes, planetary and strain wave.

The atlas is the exhibit.

The numbers behind it ship first in the weekly note: the quotes, the filings, and the next platform map when the sourcing lands.
