Never Fact without a reputable primary. | ## Executive read ### BLUF February is a thin month. No official consumer-robot recall, no named injury, and no companion or educational-kit safety action was located in the window. Toy Fair 2000 copy is launch filler. ### Key judgments 1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** A search of CPSC, Health Canada, RAPEX weekly reports, manufacturer recall pages, and named newsrooms produced no spine-grade consumer kinematic electronics action dated this window. 2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** ZDNet’s 15 February Toy Fair note (Margaret Kane) dates i-Cybie, Vision Command “for the 2000 holiday season,” and already-sold AIBO as show/catalog pages. A camera claim at a fair is not a sold trust control and is not numbered. 3. **[Inference — Moderate confidence]** ERS-110 / ERS-111 companions and Automower / Robomow yard machines remain in some homes and yards. Official silence is not empty inventory. 2000 is a leap year; cutoff is 29 February. ### 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. International Toy Fair (New York) plus ZDNet 15 February (AIBO already on sale; Tiger i-Cybie still a show price; LEGO Mindstorms Vision Command priced at $99 and “available for the 2000 holiday season”; MyBot / CyberK’Nex unveil language) is launch filler and is not numbered. Sony’s own later history line of a February 2000 ERS-111 restock is catalog and is not numbered. **Forum / community notes.** - none found. --- ## Forward indicators 1. Any CPSC / Health Canada / RAPEX robotic-mower blade, lift-sensor, or foot-access action. 2. Any official Sony AIBO or other companion safety / recall page. 3. Any educational-kit or toy-robot battery / fire / laceration file. 4. Any dated consumer-home camera/mic SKU that is sold, not merely unveiled. 5. Any brand-named robotic-mower pediatric case. > **Collection integrity.** Window = February 2000 only (leap year; cutoff 29 February). **Excluded:** ZDNet 15 February Toy Fair copy ([zdnet.com](https://www.zdnet.com/home-and-office/networking/toy-robots-do-your-bidding/)) — i-Cybie not a confirmed street SKU this month; Vision Command holiday-season language, not a February sale primary; AIBO ERS-111 restock (catalog). No CPSC AIBO / robotic-mower / pool-robot / companion / kit numbered page dated February 2000. No RAPEX robotic-mower weekly report. No Electrolux Trilobite commercial SKU. No Roomba. No named robotic-mower fatality. Forum empty. Thin month left thin. *LRRK — security assurance for systems that sense, move, and act.*
