    "excerpt": "Agility Robotics , a humanoid robotics and Physical AI company, today unveiled Digit 5, the next generation of its general-purpose humanoid robot. Digit 5 is Salem, Oregon-based Agility’s first humanoid robot engineered for cooperatively safe work at scale, allowing it to work in close proximity to people without the physical safety barriers required by traditional automation. “Digit 5 is removing a major barrier to scaling humanoid robots in industrial environments,” said Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics, in a statement. “We built it to the exact requirements our customers gave us after three years of Digit 4 working on their production floors, and the market has responded with more than $300 million in multi-year orders and a growing pipeline of customers across manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics. That’s value that compounds as Digit’s capabilities expand, backed by real demand.” Johnson is former CEO of Magic Leap and an former longtime Microsoft executive. Safety has been one of the biggest obstacles to scaling humanoid robots in commercial settings. Agility said Digit 5’s new safety architecture is designed to reduce dependence on the protective barriers typically used in traditional robotic automation, allowing it to work in close proximity to people. Building on the milestone of becoming the first humanoid to pass an independent field evaluation on a...",
