Can the LivingAI EMO be imported and sold in the United States?

The answer

Lawful to import and sell

Under the 4.4 lb threshold, so the covered device rule does not reach it. Weight on record: Well under 1 lb.

No record found

We searched and found no US authorization record. Absence of a record is itself the finding, and it is why the platform reads the way it does below.

From the board

The best known desktop companion at this price. Ask for a certificate of origin rather than trusting a listing, because the public record on where it is made does not agree with itself.

Who can buy it, and with what money

Two different gates. Whether a platform may be sold at all is set by FCC authorization and binds everyone. Whether a particular buyer may spend a particular kind of money on it is set by procurement law and binds public money only. The same machine can pass one and fail the other.

Under the 4.4 lb threshold, so the covered device rule does not reach it. Weight on record: Well under 1 lb.

A school or district
Yes

Under the 4.4 lb threshold, so the covered device rule does not reach it. Weight on record: Well under 1 lb.

The weight line

The ground robot rule is conjunctive: a device is covered only if it is foreign produced AND over 4.4 lb including any dock or charging base. Almost every desktop, companion and kit robot sits under that line, which puts it outside the rule entirely. Weight is therefore the fact that decides this tier, and where it is unpublished we confirm it against a supplier spec sheet before quoting.
