In this February 2025 short, Matthew Berman describes Clone Robotics’ Protoclone and the proposed Clone Alpha home robot. The footage shows a supported prototype moving, while the listed household capabilities and planned 279-unit release are company claims rather than demonstrated results.
- 1A supported prototypeThe clip shows a musculoskeletal humanoid moving while suspended; this is not a demonstration of independent walking.
- 2Claimed specificationsBerman reports over 200 degrees of freedom, 1,000 Myofibers and 500 sensors as company-provided figures.
- 3Clone Alpha plansThe manufacturer describes a limited 279-unit Alpha edition and a historical preorder target, without the clip establishing delivery.
- 4Household abilities are claimsThe listed laundry, food and conversation abilities are promotional goals, not verified demonstrations in this video.
핵심 정리
- Protoclone is a humanoid prototype using an artificial-muscle approach; its displayed movement does not show independent walking or household work.
- The quoted degrees of freedom, Myofiber count and sensor count are reported specifications, not independently verified measurements.
- Clone promoted a limited 279-unit Alpha edition and listed household tasks, but the video does not establish deliveries or reliable task performance.
- The company preorder page still describes availability in 2025; that historical wording alone does not confirm current ordering or shipping.

The Protoclone prototype
Berman reacts to the humanoid’s appearance and describes reported artificial-muscle specifications. The shown prototype is supported.
Clone Robotics has introduced Protoclone, a humanoid musculoskeletal prototype that I find striking and unsettling. The footage shows it moving while suspended by supports; it does not establish independent walking. The description “world’s first” is a company-style claim that is not verified here.
I report more than 200 degrees of freedom, 1,000 artificial Myofibers and 500 sensors as specifications associated with the design. These figures are reported claims, not independent measurements of a delivered system or proof of reliable performance.
The proposed home robot
He reads the company’s planned Alpha edition and household task list. These are not evidence of a working delivered product.
Clone promotes a separate, limited-run home product called Clone Alpha, with 279 units and a 2025 preorder target. Its [preorder page](https://www.clonerobotics.com/pre-order/) still carries that historical date; the page alone does not confirm that orders are currently accepted, units have shipped or the product is ready for general use.
The company lists proposed skills such as conversation, handshakes, making sandwiches, pouring drinks, laundry, vacuuming, switching lights and setting a table. I find the idea of a home assistant exciting and unsettling, but the footage shown here does not demonstrate these tasks or establish that they can be performed reliably and autonomously.
