FireDome builds autonomous wildfire defense systems to protect communities and infrastructure before firefighters arrive.

Cyber and physical security threats are rapidly evolving, but robotics and AI can evolve to meet them, writes a columnist.

ANYbotics designed Shift to help maintenance teams run industrial inspections, detect failing equipment, and turn data into work orders.

Attendees will learn about the many ways they can use force and torque sensors in humanoids and how to avoid breaking them while doing it.

Labor availability, costs, productivity, and efficiency are common concerns of farmers that technology can address, according to CNH. 

Decommissioning a humanoid robot is not a matter of traditional scrapping. It’s a highly technical, high-stakes surgical endeavor.

Ultrasound sensing can provide tactile perception for robotic hands while avoiding wear and tear, says UltraSense.

Vision AI doesn’t replace robots or human judgement; it provides the continuous perception that allows both to operate safely together.

An interview with Eric Sivertson of Lattice Semiconductor about FPGAs and how they can improve robot safety and security.

From first contact through surface deformation, load distribution, and final stable hold, pressure sensors can improve robotic bin picking.

Lyte AI plans to use its second round of funding this year to scale production of its AI and perception capabilities.

Rajat Bhageria, the founder and CEO of Chef Robotics, will explore what makes food such a demanding benchmark for physical AI.

Locus Robotics recently acquired Nexera Robotics, which create unique soft picking technology, bolstering its manipulation capabilities.

Carbon Robotics introduced a plant foundation AI model and tractor kit, enabling farmers to customize laser weeding.

Automotive suppliers Unichem and R&Y are working with Loomia to develop tactile sensors for automotive and robotics applications.

Gunnar Pétur Hauksson, the co-founder and COO at Treble Technologies, says robotics developers can’t overlook the importance of hearing.

Industry experts will discuss how to scale mobile robots in the warehouse while maintaining both safety and productivity.

Autonomy is no longer just about robotic motor skills. It encompasses machine awareness, dynamic decision-making, multi-vehicle coordination, and spatial precision at a large scale.

Generative Bionics said its Gene.01 humanoid is fully sensorized, helping it quickly anticipate human presence and respond.

Deploying world models in real robotic systems requires a step that receives less attention than the models themselves: conditioning.

Real-world robotics success requires building infrastructure-free systems that thrive in unpredictable, harsh outdoor environments.

AGIBOT said its demoes and industrial deployments show its progress in turning embodied AI capabilities into repeatable workflows.
