As a tip from an owner... if you are planning to play around, maybe even the robot dog (Go2) can be a good start and comes with a LIDAR preinstalled. When humanoid robots enter into zero-torque / damping mode, it's 30 kg falling to the floor. I know it might sound stupid, but I didn't realize how heavy and scary this is, at least for me, once you have it in front of you.
