## Executive read

### BLUF

February is a thin month. No official consumer-robot recall, no named injury, no companion-robot brick, and no new docket was located in the window. Sony’s 1 February Choco ship and the scheduled mid-February aibo 2.0 drop are January’s announcement executing, not a new spine Fact unless a February primary is opened. None was.

### Key judgments

1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** A search of CPSC, Health Canada, UK OPSS, EU Safety Gate, manufacturer recall pages, and named newsrooms produced no spine-grade consumer kinematic electronics action dated February 2019.
2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** Terra remains an unveil, not a shipping injury file. aibo remains a live subscription SKU on January’s Japan pages.
3. **[Inference — Moderate confidence]** Official silence in February is not a finding that yards or companions were empty.

### Analytic labels
- **Fact** — verified reporting or primary record
- **Assessment** — analytic judgment
- **Inference** — reasoned but not directly observed
- **Uncertainty** — unresolved information gap

### Source grades
- **A1** — authoritative primary record / directly confirmed
- **B1–B2** — generally reliable and corroborated
- **C3** — useful but requires caution (typical for forums)

## No numbered signals

This month produced **zero** in-window spine-grade signals. January’s Terra unveil and Sony 23 January aibo pages are out of window and are not re-filed as February Fact. A mid-February aibo 2.0 / Patrol ship was **scheduled** on the January Sony page; a February vendor “it shipped” primary was not opened here.

**Forum / community notes.**
- none found.

## Forward indicators

1. Jibo — any dated server-kill or owner notice (IP sale to SQN is 2018 background).
2. Anki / Vector — any 2019 continuity or shutdown primary.
3. First 2019 official consumer-robot recall (none found through this cutoff).
4. Terra Germany SKU or US beta terms.
5. Any brand-named robotic-mower pediatric case (Pertisau remains 21 June 2018).
