Agility Robotics, the maker of the Digit humanoid, is exploring wheeled robots as part of a broader look at robot designs, according to The Robot Report.
The exploration covers a range of forms intended to address different operating environments and customer needs. Wheels are one option under consideration, rather than the sole focus described in the report’s summary.
The distinction is important: this is an account of design exploration, not a confirmed wheeled-product launch. The supplied summary gives no specifications, timetable or details of customers involved.
For Agility, the reported direction points beyond the form of its Digit humanoid. Whether that work produces a wheeled robot—and what tasks such a machine would perform—remains unspecified in the available material.
