Agility Robotics is making a 70,000 square foot factory to mass produce 10,000 humanoid Digit robots per year. The factory is about half the size of a Costco. They will use the humanoid robots in their own warehouses and factories. They are focused on warehouse and delivery robots.
They have switched to large language model AI for robot control.
Each of Tesla’s gigafactories for building cars is about 10 million square feet of factory floor space. If Agility Robotics or other humanoid robot makers have demand to enable scaling a factory to 10 million square feet then such a factory would make 1.5 million humanoid robots per year.
