Latest: 2026-08-09Release 0.1.0Machine-readable data versioned

2026-08-09 · Release 0.1.0

  • Published 15 source-audited component records and 15 manufacturer profiles spanning integrated actuation, depth cameras, 3D LiDAR, embedded compute and batteries.
  • Released 89 claim-level records with conditions, source locations, verification dates and explicit evidence states.
  • Published five cross-category evidence tables without composite scores.
  • Added versioned JSON and flattened claim CSV plus stable current aliases.
  • Fixed and published the 30-question AI citation benchmark and 150-row run template; baseline results remain pending.
  • Expanded the research library to ten evergreen guides and one original cross-category data audit.

Reason: pressure-test the evidence schema with real, unlike product records before expanding record count.

2026-08-09 · Release 0.0.1

  • Established the five-layer component taxonomy: motion, perception, compute, power and integration.
  • Declared actuation and integrated joints as the first deep evidence file.
  • Published the public methodology, editorial policy, corrections process and coverage boundary.
  • Released the first source directory with monitoring cadence and source-specific reuse guidance.
  • Published RCI 001 and RCI 002 as the launch research notes.

Reason: establish the evidence and rights infrastructure before publishing comparative product claims.
