## Executive read

### BLUF

February 2017 is a thin month. No official consumer-robot recall, no named injury, no companion-robot ship, and no new docket was located in the window. January’s Kuri deposit remains a live SKU promise, not a February event.

### Key judgments

1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** A search of CPSC, Health Canada, RAPEX/Safety Gate, manufacturer recall pages, and named newsrooms produced no spine-grade consumer kinematic electronics action dated February 2017.
2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** No numbered CPSC page for a Roomba, robotic mower, pool robot, Cozmo, Jibo, or kit-battery consumer robot was found this month.
3. **[Inference — Moderate confidence]** Official silence in February is not a finding that yards were empty of robotic mowers or that Kuri deposits were not being taken.

### 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 Kuri CES deposit and July’s iRobot maps file are out of window and are not previewed as Fact.

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

## Forward indicators

1. Any CPSC, Health Canada, or RAPEX consumer-robot action in Q1 2017.
2. Dated Jibo backer fulfillment.
3. Kuri privacy terms or FCC ID before holiday ship.
4. Anki Cozmo still-shipping confirmation outside the US.
5. Any brand-named robotic-mower pediatric case.

> **Collection integrity.** Window = February 2017 only. **Excluded:** January Kuri CES; Honda Miimo US intro (April); walk-behind mower recalls (out of class when they appear). No CPSC robot-vac / robotic-mower / pool-robot / companion-robot action dated February 2017. No named injury. No named mower fatality. Forum empty. Thin month left thin.
