Canonical robot record
Overview
Phantom MK-1 is a human-scale industrial humanoid from Foundation Future Industries. RoboZaps records its physical and performance figures in the sourced specification table below. The manufacturer page contains conflicting payload rows, so the record keeps the page's headline value and discloses the contradiction.
Foundation told Reuters that Phantom MK-1 had been used in a company-reported deployment for an unnamed automotive customer. Because the customer, deployed robot count and detailed quantities were not disclosed, RoboZaps treats paid deployment as reported rather than independently verified. Foundation also reported an annual industrial leasing model; that commercial term is not a purchase price.
RoboZaps maintains this record as part of its canonical robotics database. Specs are source-verified where linked; the record compares public facts across manufacturers rather than representing a single robot maker.

Deployment and commercial evidence
Deployment evidence
Humanoid robots tested in Ukraine war by Foundation Future Industries
CNBC reported that Foundation sent two early Phantom MK-1 units to Ukraine in early 2026 for logistics trials in dangerous areas, with U.S. government support and Ukrainian-official participation. This supports piloting, not commercial availability or scaled deployment.

- Height: 175 cm changed to 180 cm · Jul 10, 2026
tranche-8 verification (corrected): Official spec page: 5'11" (1.8 m). 175 cm/5'9" was the early press figure. This also resolves the record's internal 1750-vs-1800 conflict in favor of core height_mm
