ROBOTICS / THE INDUSTRY PICTURE
Intelligence,
put to work.
From factory arms to machines that move through our world. Follow adoption, the people building it, and the evidence of useful work.
Public source context · checked 13 November 2026 UTC. 2025 global installations · H1 2026 North American orders & Chinese output. Dated deployment examples are historical accounts, not live operating status. No composite Robotics score.
01 / ADOPTION AT SCALE
2026 in view.
Adoption in context.
Industrial robot installations provide one measured view of adoption. They do not count every service robot, drone, autonomous vehicle or humanoid.

02 / PLAYERS & CONTRIBUTIONS
Many forms.
Different jobs to do.
Chinese companies are part of the starting picture: Unitree, UBTECH, AgiBot, Fourier, EngineAI, Geek+ and DJI. Explore them alongside other robot makers, operators and platform providers.
A selective directory, not market shares or a ranking. “China focus” selects these seven Chinese companies; it does not assign a nationality to every supplier, product or installation. Portfolio pages have no event date unless specified. Profiles describe source-attributed roles, not verified performance.
03 / DEPLOYMENT EVIDENCE MAP
What has actually been shown?
A plan, a bounded trial and a customer’s account of use answer different questions. This map groups five selected accounts by evidence stage; it is not a complete inventory or a maturity ranking.
These are source-attributed context examples, not newly verified EBIGRAPH reports. Customers and manufacturers are interested parties. Copies of one announcement remain one information origin. New claims and approvals continue through the private review workflow.
04 / CONDITIONAL IMPACT PATHS
The benefit still has to be measured.
Editorial research questions: a plausible mechanism is a starting point. The following potential benefits are conditional, not demonstrated outcomes of the examples above.
