Envisioning a day when hundreds of humanoid robots can be summoned and deployed at the touch of a button, Agility Robotics has announced its first fleet management platform.
Why it matters: There’s intense competition among humanoid robot manufacturers to get their products into the industrial marketplace, where companies like Amazon and BMW are eager for their help.
Driving the news: The new platform, Agility Arc, is a cloud-based tool that’ll be able to command a robot army, say, to start moving bins to a conveyor belt at a particular time.
What they’re saying: “The ability to control fleets of robots is something that everybody in the robotics business needs to do,” Damion Shelton, president of Agility Robotics, tells Axios.
