When to pick which
Choose the Agility Robotics Digit v4 for large-scale logistics and fulfillment centers where continuous, multi-shift operation is a priority. Its hot-swappable LiPo battery system and Agility Arc cloud platform make it superior for fleet management in high-throughput environments. If your facility already utilizes ROS2 for existing automation, the Digit’s ROS2 bridge allows for faster integration into current workflows. It is the better choice for specific, repetitive tasks like bulk pack-to-conveyor or tote handling where mobility and proven deployment in warehouse environments outweigh the need for high-dexterity manipulation.
Opt for the Sanctuary AI Phoenix Gen 7 for manufacturing or retail environments that require high-dexterity manipulation and a higher payload capacity. With 40 degrees of freedom—double that of the Digit—the Phoenix is better suited for complex tasks like retail stocking or intricate assembly where fine motor control is essential. Its 25kg payload capacity allows for handling heavier components in industrial settings. Choose this platform if your deployment relies on the Carbon AI system for cognitive task execution and longer 6-hour runtimes to minimize charging intervals during single-shift operations.
