Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper: G1 or TALOS?
G1 is cheaper at $13,500 vs $400,000 for TALOS. Note that lower price does not imply lower total cost of ownership — see the TCO calculator on the Explore page for utilisation-adjusted figures.
Which has higher payload: G1 or TALOS?
TALOS rates a higher payload at 6 kg vs 2 kg. Payload ratings are vendor claims and do not always include a duty cycle — peak vs sustained payload can differ significantly.
Are both G1 and TALOS shipping to customers?
Yes. Both are commercially available as of the last review. Delivery timelines and customer geographies vary per vendor — check the manufacturer page for each.
Which is better for ROS-based development: G1 or TALOS?
G1 has ros2; TALOS has ROS 1 only. For research and multi-vendor robotics stacks, native ROS 2 is the strongest signal of ecosystem maturity.
Does G1 or TALOS use LiDAR?
G1 ships with LiDAR for depth sensing; TALOS does not. LiDAR adds cost and complexity but improves obstacle detection in low-light or low-contrast environments.
