Digit

Digit

Digit, developed by Agility Robotics, is a groundbreaking humanoid robot designed to work alongside humans in environments built for people. Standing 5'9" tall and weighing 143 pounds, Digit walks upright on two legs with bird-like agility, allowing it to navigate stairs, tight corridors, and uneven ground. Its lightweight arms with four degrees of freedom enable it to lift and move packages up to 35 pounds, making it ideal for repetitive logistics tasks like tote retrieval and warehouse stacking. Digit is powered by onboard computers, uses LiDAR and depth cameras for navigation, and connects to the Agility Arc cloud platform for autonomous task coordination and fleet management. With a modular design, it can be customized for a wide range of industrial applications. Digit isn’t just a robot—it’s a step toward blending robotics into everyday human workflows, tackling labor shortages while enhancing efficiency and safety in real-world workplaces.
