# RoboBusiness Panel to Feature Humanoid Robot Developers

A panel discussion at RoboBusiness will bring together engineering leaders from four companies—Agility, Apptronik, Persona AI, and PSYONIC—to discuss the current state of humanoid robotics development. The event will provide direct insights from organizations actively building and deploying humanoid systems, according to reporting from The Robot Report.

The discussion matters for automation integrators and logistics operators evaluating near-term deployment options. Humanoid form factors are being positioned for warehouse, manufacturing, and service tasks where existing infrastructure was designed for human workers. Hearing directly from developers clarifies which capabilities are production-ready versus in-development, helping operators assess technical readiness and integration timelines for their specific workflows.

One practical consideration: humanoid robots require different site integration than task-specific machines. Operators attending or reviewing panel outcomes will need to evaluate whether their existing facility layouts, safety systems, and training protocols can accommodate bipedal systems—not just whether the robots themselves function. The panel format suggests the industry is moving toward standardizing how these systems are discussed technically, which benefits anyone planning procurement decisions.
