Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper: H1 or Forerunner K2?
Forerunner K2 is cheaper at $34,800 vs $90,000 for H1. Note that lower price does not imply lower total cost of ownership — see the TCO calculator on the Explore page for utilisation-adjusted figures.
Are both H1 and Forerunner K2 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: H1 or Forerunner K2?
H1 has ros2; Forerunner K2 has no ROS support. For research and multi-vendor robotics stacks, native ROS 2 is the strongest signal of ecosystem maturity.
Does H1 or Forerunner K2 use LiDAR?
H1 ships with LiDAR for depth sensing; Forerunner K2 does not. LiDAR adds cost and complexity but improves obstacle detection in low-light or low-contrast environments.
