An AgiBot Lingxi A2 humanoid robot serves beverages at the ''Mobile Star Chef'' unmanned restaurant within the China Mobile pavilion during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, on March 5, 2026. The A2 model, standing 169cm tall and weighing 69kg, is powered by the NVIDIA Jetson Thor computing platform and utilizes China Mobile's proprietary Vision-Language-Action (VLA) AI model to autonomously process orders and navigate the service area. The robot's hardware includes over 40 degrees of freedom (DoF) with high-precision tactile sensors in its dexterous hands, allowing it to handle delicate coffee cups and utensils with a human-like grip. Connectivity is managed via a 5G-Advanced (5G-A) private network, utilizing the ZTE EasyOn RobotNet solution to ensure ultra-low latency for real-time edge-to-cloud synchronization. The A2 features a 3D LiDAR for spatial awareness and a 700Wh hot-swappable battery system, demonstrating the practical application of embodied AI in the hospitality sector.
