TechThe Matic is the first robovac to get an FCC ban waiver, not that it needs it

The FCC added Matic’s robot vacuum, model 4MA0001, and charging dock 4DK0008 to its ban-waiver list, allowing their import, marketing, and sale. But their radios were already approved, and Matic assembles the robots in Mountain View, California, so the waiver has little practical effect. The company says it is expanding US manufacturing and sourcing.
