[Agility Robotics](https://agilityrobotics.com/) describes its “[Digit](https://agilityrobotics.com/robots)” robot as “human-centric”—designed to work in human environments alongside humans—but not humanoid: any resemblance to the human form is due to functional requirements. The legs, for example, are more like those of terrestrial birds than humans.
