How content is created
Physical AI Field uses AI-assisted research combined with human editorial oversight. Our process:
- Research – We gather information from primary sources: manufacturer specifications, published research papers, official SDK/API documentation, and verified product announcements.
- Drafting – AI tools assist with structuring and drafting content based on verified sources.
- Editorial review – A human editor reviews every article for technical accuracy, clarity, and completeness before publication.
- Ongoing updates – Articles are revisited when new products launch, specs change, or pricing updates.
Fact-checking methodology
We prioritize primary sources: official manufacturer specifications, peer-reviewed robotics research, published API documentation, and direct product testing where possible.
Specific verification practices:
- Hardware specifications (payload, DOF, repeatability) are verified against official datasheets.
- Pricing is confirmed from official vendor pages or authorized distributors, with verification dates noted.
- Software compatibility claims are checked against official SDK documentation and release notes.
- Performance claims from Chinese manufacturers are cross-referenced with multiple sources where possible, given documentation can lag English-language availability.
- When primary sources are unavailable, claims are clearly marked as unconfirmed or estimated.
Articles that have been recently verified display a "✓ Verified" date in the article header.
Verified vs. unconfirmed information
- Verified claims – Backed by primary sources with a verification date. These include official specs, published prices, and confirmed release dates.
- Estimated/unconfirmed – Based on credible reporting, trade show demos, or pre-release announcements but not yet confirmed by the manufacturer. These are clearly labeled.
