Amazon tests humanoid robot in warehouse automation push
By Bloomberg | Published Oct 20, 2023
The humanoid robot, Digit, was bipedal and could squat, bend and grasp items using clasps that imitated hands, the company said in a blog post on Wednesday. It was built by Agility Robotics Inc and would initially be used to help employees consolidate totes that had been emptied of items. Amazon invested in Agility Robotics last year.
