AGIBOT Launches Genie Studio Agent Zero-Code Robot Platform, Says It Has Been Validated in Huatian Technology Wafer Handling Scenario

AGIBOT has launched the Genie Studio Agent zero-code application platform and says it has been validated in a semiconductor packaging and testing wafer handling scenario in cooperation with Huatian Technology. Two other sources mention that AGIBOT’s G2 robot has been deployed in Longcheer’s production environment and is performing precision loading and unloading tasks, but those cases are not part of the same confirmed fact chain as the Genie Studio Agent and Huatian Technology scenario. TSO verification conclusion: the three sources can only cross-confirm that AGIBOT robots have entered manufacturing scenarios and are carrying out precision handling/loading-unloading tasks; they do not confirm a shared validation of the same project, platform, or customer.
