Tech influencer Caleb shared the image again and claimed that PARAM is "almost entirely indigenous," with the Nvidia Jetson GPU and actuators being the only non-Indian components.
“This is so much more impressive when you realise that this robot dog is almost entirely indigenous. Only non-Indian parts are the actuators + Nvidia Jetson GPU. Oh, and it was built by a team of 5 people in 30 days. IP67 rated, running temperature: -20C to +55C,” Caleb mentioned on X.

The post immediately attracted attention and sparked a flurry of responses. Many users hailed the development, with one stating, “Impressive work, our technocrats and your reporting needs more appreciation and support.”
Another user wrote, “What about the software? That’s the most crucial factor of any robot. 30 days is definitely not enough to develop such software. Assembling a computer is not the same as creating a computer.”
“Seems it only has a commercial use case, and competes with Boston Dynamics if they can mass produce at cheaper costs,” a third user said. “India is waking up to its potential,” a fourth user commented.
