A first of its kind factory that will build humanoid robots is set to open in Salem, Oregon
Agility Robotics is opening a first-of-its-kind factory in Salem, Oregon where it will mass-produce a line of humanoid robots called Digit.
Digit was designed to function as a"robotic co-worker" that can maneuver around warehouses and factories, traversing steps or crouching into small spaces. The 70,000 square-foot facility, which the company is calling the"RoboFab," is the first of its kind, according to Damion Shelton, CEO and co-founder of Agility Robotics.
"It's a really big endeavor, not something where you flick a switch and suddenly turn it on," Campbell said."There's kind of a ramp-up process. The inflection point today is that we're opening the factory, installing the production lines and starting to grow capacity and scale with something that's never been done before."
