Odyssey Robot's US Drone HQ Found to Be an Empty Office in Pasadena

Odyssey Robot, a startup presenting itself as a US drone manufacturer, lists its headquarters at a coworking space in Pasadena, California. A visit to the listed office, Room 18, revealed a nearly empty room with just three desks and chairs but no computers, chargers, or signs of active use. The company has positioned itself as an American drone company, likely to appeal to government or defense procurement preferences. The findings raise questions about the legitimacy and operational capacity of the firm. The Verge investigated the physical premises as part of broader scrutiny into the company's claims.
