Apollo · Best for
Warehouse and logistics box/tote picking and transport (primary focus; proven in GXO trials).
H1 · Best for
Inspection applications — walking through factories, construction sites, or infrastructure facilities that aren't accessible to wheeled robots
Final judgment
If immediate deployment is the priority, choose H1. If the goal is to be ready when Apollo's capabilities mature, track it.
