Agility Robotics has selected Nyobolt as the battery technology provider for its Digit 5 humanoid robot, enabling 90 minutes of runtime per charge with a 9-minute recharge — a 10:1 run-to-charge ratio that supports more than 20 hours of productive work in a 24-hour day. The partnership is framed as a key upgrade enabling Digit 5's commercial deployment in warehouse, distribution, and manufacturing operations, with early access beginning in the first half of 2027.
Agility Robotics is partnering with Nyobolt to integrate ultra-fast charging battery technology into its Digit 5 humanoid robot. The new system delivers 90 minutes of runtime with a 9-minute charge (a 10:1 run-to-charge ratio, up from Digit 4's 2:1), enabling Digit 5 to operate more than 20 productive hours per day. Early access to Digit 5 with Nyobolt's technology is expected to begin in the first half of 2027.
Exol (formerly GreenBox Logistics) has launched its first US robotic fulfillment-as-a-service network with backing from SoftBank Group and Symbotic's $7.5 billion commitment. The company plans to build six automated facilities nationwide totaling six million square feet, starting with an operational Atlanta facility, offering businesses shared access to warehouse automation without requiring significant capital investment. This model represents a shift toward software-driven, shared robotic infrastructure in logistics, addressing the growing gap between rising labor costs and limited adoption of traditional automation among mid-sized businesses.
