The Real Bottleneck Nobody Talks About: Computational Overhead

Robotics operates on fundamentally different economics than software distribution.

Software scales through replication—you push one model, it runs on millions of user devices seamlessly.

Robotics? That's a different beast. You're not deploying a single instance. You're running millions of models in parallel across millions of physical machines, each executing continuously without pause.

The infrastructure burden isn't linear. It compounds with every additional node. This scalability ceiling? That's the real constraint most people overlook when discussing autonomous systems and edge computing deployment.
