Is physical world AI the future of autonomous machines? 🤖🌍 While companies like Waymo have paved the way, most organizations cannot build the technology necessary for the compute engine to reside solely in the vehicle. They will need cloud-based systems that provide a high-precision understanding of the physical world. The future of autonomy won’t be defined solely by onboard technology, but by the fusion of real-time machine learning at the edge with rich, cloud-based spatial intelligence. ➡️ Read the full article on The Robot Report by Mo Sarwat. https://lnkd.in/dcs3gGG2

NVIDIA Corp. this week gave a look at how leading manufacturers, industrial software developers, and robotics companies are using Omniverse technologies to build robotic factories and collaborative robotics. These systems will enable these companies to overcome labor shortages and drive American reindustrialization, NVIDIA said.

In medical robotics, the actuation layer is more than just motion — it's accuracy, safety, and performance under constraint. This article explores how smarter motor solutions—featuring advanced control, compact integration, sensor feedback, and high power density—are enabling next-gen medical platforms from surgical arms to automated delivery systems. Engineers and device leaders should understand how these choices impact system behavior, design trade-offs, and eventual clinical success. Full article: https://lnkd.in/eWxhZftE
