AGIBOT reported that two of six G2 wheeled humanoid robots failed their performance assessment following a 24-hour trial in a Shanghai convenience store. The trial took place between 2 November and 3 November in the city's Xuhui district.
The company stated that the machines completed 1,730 tasks across four shifts, including serving hot food, preparing coffee, helping customers and checking shelves. Evaluators measured response times, task completion, customer feedback and how the machines handled unexpected obstacles.
According to Chinese media reports cited by TechSpot, the cleaning machine encountered an overflowing bin, left its assigned path, exited the shop and did not return. The robot handling shelf restocking struggled to recognise when merchandise had sold out and failed to restock items consistently.
AGIBOT said four machines passed the final assessment, while the two failed units were placed in an observation group for further adjustments.
