Agile ONE by Agile Robots vs GR-3 by Fourier

Agile ONE or GR-3? Compare specs, sensors, navigation, battery, and speed for industrial vs service humanoid performance.

Agile ONE by Agile Robots is positioned for industrial applications, including factory floor material gathering, pick-and-place operations, machine tending, and precision assembly. It differentiates through its 174 cm height, 69 kg weight, 2.0 m/s speed, and advanced sensors like four head-mounted RGB cameras, LiDAR, and fingertip force sensors in every hand joint. The robot employs AgileCore proprietary AI with layered architecture for strategic reasoning, rapid response, and fine motor precision, enabling autonomous operation with natural language instructions.

GR-3 by Fourier Intelligence targets service-oriented roles such as elderly care assistance, healthcare support, home companionship, and public space engagement. It stands at 165 cm height, 51.5 cm shoulder width, 32 cm depth, weighs 71 kg, and achieves 5 km/h speed with a 5-year battery life. Key differentiators include a structured-light camera, four-microphone array, 31 distributed pressure sensors, and control integrating autonomous operation, teleoperation, and LLM reasoning.
