Agibot

Agibot is a Shanghai-based robotics company founded by Peng Zhihui, a former Huawei "Genius Youth" recruit and popular tech influencer. The company specializes in developing advanced humanoid robots for industrial and commercial applications. Agibot's flagship product is the Yuanzheng A2, a bipedal humanoid robot standing 175 cm tall and weighing 55 kg. This robot is equipped with various sensors and AI capabilities, allowing it to see, hear, and process text, audio, and visual information. The Yuanzheng A2 is designed for precision tasks, such as threading a needle, and can lift up to 55 pounds.

In August 2024, Agibot unveiled a family of five new humanoid robots, including both wheeled and biped models, designed for tasks ranging from household chores to industrial operations. These robots feature advancements in power, perception, communication, and control systems. Agibot has developed proprietary technologies such as the PowerFlow joint modules and AimRT, a lightweight communication framework for intelligent robots. The company aims to begin shipping 300 units by the end of 2024 and plans to establish Shanghai's first mass production factory for humanoid robots in partnership with Lingang Group.

Key customers and partnerships

Agibot has formed strategic partnerships with several state-owned enterprises and corporations. The company signed agreements with Lingang Group, a major state-run conglomerate, to build a smart robot production factory in Shanghai's Pudong Lingang New Area. Additionally, Agibot has partnered with Shanghai Airport Authority and China Telecom to deploy its robots in various scenarios, including the city's two airports and a 5G-powered, AI-driven smart factory. These collaborations aim to test and iterate Agibot's technologies in real-world applications such as automaking, 3C manufacturing, and logistics.
