Digit the humanoid robot is 5 feet 9 inches (175cm) tall and lives in warehouses, helping its human coworkers move and stack boxes up to 35 pounds (15.87kg). It also "smiles" and waves.
Robots like Digit are a growing pursuit among robotics companies that are trying to bring humanoids into everyday life, and specifically into the home as helpers. A crucial part of that equation is using artificial intelligence to help the robot observe, interpret and respond to its surroundings in real time, without human intervention.
