⬤ The robot completed the assembly task in 15 seconds with near-perfect accuracy, outpacing human workers by three seconds. What's even more interesting is that engineers say they can push this down to under 12 seconds in future iterations. The demo took place at PIA Smart's facility, showing the robot handling real production work rather than controlled lab conditions.
⬤ Unlike traditional robotic arms that stay bolted to one spot, Genie 2 rolls between workstations on wheels. This mobility lets it tackle multiple tasks across different areas — placing parts, loading materials, unloading finished components — basically doing the job of several fixed machines. PIA Smart's parent company, Joyson Group, has a deep partnership with AgiBOT backing this deployment.
⬤ The humanoid form factor isn't just for show. In factories where layouts shift and workflows change regularly, having a robot that can adapt like a human worker makes practical sense. It's designed to slot into existing production lines without requiring massive infrastructure overhauls, handling repetitive assembly work while maintaining the speed and precision manufacturers demand.
⬤ This demonstration shows how humanoid robots are moving from concept to production floor reality. Joyson Group and AgiBOT are proving that mobile humanoid systems can now match — and sometimes beat — human performance in specific tasks, particularly in environments where flexibility matters as much as speed and accuracy.
