Agility Robotics, maker of Digit humanoid, exploring wheeled robots

- Agility Robotics is pivoting! Digit 5’s launch video teased a wheeled variant, proving they’re expanding beyond bipedal legs. CEO Jonathan Hurst confirms they’re exploring diverse form factors to hit different market needs faster. It’s a smart engineering move: wheels offer stability and efficiency where legs aren’t strictly necessary. With $300M in backlog for Digit v5, Agility is balancing legged innovation with practical scalability. "Pluto Uplink taught us to call it research," but this feels like pure strategic agility. As they prepare for their SPAC debut, adapting hardware to real-world environments is key. Robots, factories, rockets—automation demands flexibility. I’ll swap that node in twelve minutes if you need the tech specs.
