Germany's Agile Robots launches Agile ONE, its first industrial humanoid, with five-fingered hands featuring force and tactile sensing, and plans production in Bavaria from early 2026.
What changes
- Agile Robots' first humanoid, from a Munich specialist in force-controlled robots.
- Five-fingered hands with force sensing in the joints and tactile sensing in the fingertips.
- Safety: proximity sensors, rear camera, light rings and a chest display to signal its intentions.
- Production planned in Bavaria from early 2026.
### Background On 19 November 2025, Agile Robots, a Munich company known for force-controlled robot arms, unveiled Agile ONE, its first humanoid. It targets factories: material transport, pick-and-place, machine tending and fine manipulation. CEO Zhaopeng Chen highlights the hands, which he says can "manipulate a tiny screw, operate a power tool, or touch a screen". ### Specifications | Item | Detail | |---|---| | Hands | 5 fingers, force sensing (joints) and tactile sensing (fingertips) | | Interaction | Eye light rings, chest display | | Safety | Proximity sensors, rear camera | | AI | Trained on real-world industrial datasets | | Production | In Bavaria, from early 2026 | Agile Robots has published neither dimensions, payload nor price. ### Why it matters Agile ONE adds a German player, rooted in classic industrial robotics, to a race so far dominated by US and Chinese start-ups. The company relies on its force-control expertise and its own factory. ### Key takeaway In March 2026, Agile Robots announced it would deploy Google DeepMind foundation models on its humanoid.
