Training AI models for humanoid robots
Agility Robotics is an industry leader, focusing on robots that provide a unique value to businesses by enhancing their human workforce’s productivity, efficiency, and wellness. In the words of Peggy Johnson, Agility’s CEO, “Tech needs to augment what we as humans are trying to achieve – it cannot replace it.” With that goal, the company developed Digit, the first commercially deployed humanoid robot designed to work alongside humans in warehouses, logistics, and manufacturing environments. Digit is now being used successfully by a wide variety of companies to perform tasks like moving empty totes to improve efficiency and to handle repetitive, manual, and ergonomic tasks, freeing up human workers for other jobs. Through AWS's cloud infrastructure, Agility is scaling its AI model training capabilities to advance robot perception, movement, and safety features.
