US FCC adds foreign-made advanced robots to controlled list; Pudu’s new ET1 faces authorization hurdle
The US Federal Communications Commission added foreign-made “advanced robotic equipment” to its controlled list, making it difficult for Pudu Technology’s newly launched ET1 cleaning robot to obtain FCC equipment authorization to enter the US market; it needs to apply for a conditional waiver. Models that have already received authorization can continue to be sold. Progress: media reports. Entity involved: Shenzhen Pudu Technology Co., Ltd. Scope: US market access.
