Agility Robotics Partners with Nyobolt for Ultra-Fast Charging Battery in Digit 5
- Published
Agility Robotics has selected Nyobolt as its technology partner for the ultra-fast charging battery system in its new humanoid robot, Digit 5. This collaboration aims to enhance Digit 5's operational efficiency, allowing it to work over 20 hours within a 24-hour period, a significant improvement over previous models.
The integration of Nyobolt's high-power battery technology enables Digit 5 to achieve a remarkable 90-minute runtime with a rapid 9-minute charging time, resulting in a 10:1 run-to-charge ratio. This advancement is crucial for maximizing productivity and minimizing downtime, which are essential for customers deploying humanoid robots in industrial settings.
Looking ahead, the combination of Agility's humanoid robotics expertise and Nyobolt's innovative battery solutions positions Digit 5 as a strong contender in warehouse, distribution, and manufacturing operations. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
