Digit is directly integrated into the order fulfillment workflow. This isn't a test, demo, or pilot. Digit is on the job.
Do your robots have the ability to verbally communicate with nearby humans?

Really good starting point for data in the field. My worry is these actions longterm. Humanoid robotics mainly excel at dynamic systems. Yes, we aren't there yet so this is a great opportunity but long term doing things that can be automated with a motorized cart and tracks that extend will be extremely hard to compete with. I'm really rooting for the agility robotics team, excited to see the future.

Improved Quality, case traceability, COVID free, pick sequencing, no voice pick, no light pick, no theift, secure product management, no injuries from repetitive motion, replace battery pack and keep going. Best of all increased need for Skilled Technicians to support the growing automation. KPI Solutions
Impressive work.
How many tote pickup/drop operations can Digit accomplish per full charge? Also curious about time taken per pickup/drop operation; hard to estimate with the video speedup.
Why not place the delivery stacks closer to digit and reduce the distance/ movement and increase unit time !! Just a thought !
This is exciting future.. i’m curious of the breath of use cases
Great! Was this a task previously performed by a human worker?
Great to see this, real progress. Congratulations Agility.

1wDoes digit walk on concrete? Curious why the deduct lane is so far from the conveyor, is it driven by a limitation of Digit in regards to turning area ? Seems like an interesting use case with 6RS; something to keep in your back pocket for peak when the operation is exceeding the throughout capabilities of a robotic arm based solution. Is digit able to queue as to increase throughout if desired?
