Isn't it better to control robots from the data center? You can get 30ms round-trip to most urban centers, which is sufficient latency for most tasks; lower weight & cost robots with better battery life, and more uptime on compute (e.g. the GPU isn't sitting there doing nothing when the user is sleeping) which means lower cost to consumer for the same end result.
For self-driving you need edge compute because a few milliseconds of latency is a safety risk, but for many applications I don't see why you'd want that.
