    <span style=3D"font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
    Agility Robotics has debuted a humanoid=
    robot engineered to work safely near humans without risking harm to their = co-workers. The robot autonomously takes precautions when it detects a pers=
    on at a distance, such as moving to avoid the person or standing still so t=
    he person can pass without getting closer. It can even choose to squat and = assume a seated position if a person is getting too close. The robot will b=
    e available in early access within the first half of 2027 and become genera= lly available by the end of the year.
