Yukai Engineering
Qoobo

Can the Yukai Engineering Qoobo be imported and sold in the United States?

The answer

Lawful to import and sell

Under the 4.4 lb threshold as weighed with its dock or charging base, so the covered device rule does not reach it. Weight on record: 2.2 lb. Where that figure is the robot alone we confirm the dock weight before quoting.

Weight on record
2.2 lb
Weight published and checked

The maker publishes a weight and we have read it against the 4.4 lb line. We have run no FCC grant search on this tier, because a device the covered device definition does not reach needs no grandfathered authorization. We confirm the weight, including any dock or charging base, against a supplier spec sheet before quoting.

From the board

The cleanest compliance story on this whole board. If it carries no radio at all it cannot meet the connectivity element, so the rule cannot reach it on any reading. Yukai also runs an explicit ODM practice, which is unusual and useful.

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.

The weight line

The ground robot rule is conjunctive, and weight is one of its five elements. Miss any one of them and the rule does not reach the device at all. Almost every desktop, companion and kit robot sits under 4.4 lb including its dock or charging base, which puts it outside the definition whatever the other four elements say. Weight is therefore the fact that usually decides this tier, and where it is unpublished we confirm it against a supplier spec sheet before quoting.
