Helix can pick up any small household objects that it haswithout specific Issk tine-tuning. The entire Helix modelis trained using only 500never encounlered before, using only one pre-trained neutral network weighting.hours of supervised dataset, similar ta the training tifne required for a single taskpreviousiy. Helix achieves this through bridging previously separated models for1) decision making (using Visual Language Model, VLM) and 2) rcbot action (throughimitistion learning), We believe the new Helix VLA model helps humansids learn moretasks faster. Humanoids achieve a kanger battery lfe by utlising ckoud cornputation,which we believe is still a key bottieneck for humanoid commercialisation. Humanoid cost and market size scenario estimates: Using public announcementsfrorn leadrng hurmaroid players as a berchurark, we conducted a scenario analysis onhumaroid robct mass producion and estinate the iriarket to grow from USDgoQm in2025e to USD73bn in 2034e in our base cae [CAGR 83%, Exhibit 3), We beleve thecast willdecine frorn cUSD5Bk per unit to cUSD20k in 2032e, or a 11% per annurmdecline frorn 2025 to 2034e. In the past, intustrial robots coest carre down c7% p.a.between 2006 and 2017. Tesia's averrge CoGS per vehicle produced also tieclined10% pa. from 2017 to 2024, including the effec from product mix (Exhibit 2). We believsas production ramps up, strerg aconories ot scale wil quicdy drive down ccsts. Component value breakdown and key suppliers: Except for Al Chips/software (15%of Bil of Materials, EOM), and sensors (17% of BOM), hardware corrponents includingdrive, motors, reducers and ball screws corribined hae thie tighest value share [55%of BO) in humaroids. Given the humanoids have not yet entered mass productionmost cormpanies have only deivered samples or smal batch producions, and webelieve the supply chain s sil subject to change. Neverthekess, we idertify severalidentify suppliers 1s Unitree (private) and Tesla (TSLA, CMP USD281.95, Recuce), aswell ss ell relatad hurmanoid component corrpenies (see Exhibits 5-8).
