Agile Robots unveils Agile ONE SN humanoid reference platform
- The 1.4 m platform has 31 body degrees of freedom plus 20 in each hand and supports up to 3 kg payload per arm.
- GR00T 1.7, whole-body control and URDF/USD assets connect demonstration capture, simulation, training and physical testing.
- Availability is scheduled for early 2027; NVIDIA Halos safety integration is being explored.
Agile Robots targets 1,000–2,000 ONE S and ONE SN humanoids in 2027
- The target covers Agile ONE S and ONE SN together, aimed at universities and corporate research laboratories.
- ONE SN combines dexterous hands, cameras and NVIDIA Jetson Thor in a jointly specified research configuration.
- Stanford and ETH Zurich were named as potential customers, rather than confirmed orders.
Agile Robots starts mobile-humanoid sequencing proof of concept with Audi
- The robots combine dual-arm manipulation and humanoid reach with a mobile base.
- A DELMIA virtual twin on Dassault Systèmes’3 DEXPERIENCE platform uses NVIDIA Omniverse libraries to assess feasibility, timing, ergonomics and safety.
- Audi defines sequencing requirements for the trial; wider production use remains a future objective.
Siemens welcomes Logiicdev to Factory-One robotics validation programme
- Initial validation is proposed on FPGA platforms using LiDAR, vision and multi-sensor datasets.
- The evaluation will measure latency, power, predictability and other practical operating constraints.
- Longer-term development could involve motion control, industrial communications and a dedicated system-on-chip.
Siemens and NVIDIA unveil AI applications tested at Erlangen factory
- Cosmos generates inspection-training images from digital twins before physical PCB prototypes are available.
- AI agents propose production scenarios that planners validate against a factory digital twin before implementation.
- Siemens claims potential reductions of up to 85% in preparation engineering, 40% in time to market and 20% in planning costs.
Mercedes-Benz expands NVIDIA partnership for automated driving and future Level 4 applications
- Alpamayo supports point-to-point urban assistance, active safety and automated parking.
- Halos provides a parallel safety stack for redundancy and guardrails.
- Future SAE Level 4 applications include robolimousines; the companies also collaborate on engineering simulation and the MO360 production ecosystem.
Siemens opens six embodied-AI validation scenarios at five Chinese factories
- Scenarios include bulk-part sorting and loading, container transport, depalletizing and palletizing.
- Other tasks cover process operations and quality inspection, precision screw fastening and finished-product packaging.
- The programme aims to test transfer across production lines and operating scenarios.
KUKA adds TD SYNNEX as European AMR distribution partner
- The initial rollout covers the United Kingdom, France, Spain and Benelux, with further markets planned.
- Partners receive technical workshops, local-language training through KUKA Colleges and digital support through PartnerFirst.
- Collaborative robots, education packages and industrial software are expected to follow the AMR portfolio.
RobCo share sale values industrial-robotics company above $1 billion
- RobCo develops autonomous industrial robots for repetitive factory work, including pallet stacking and weighing raw materials.
- Its flagship Alfie is a two-armed, self-learning robot designed for factory-floor tasks.
Siemens agrees global industrial-technology distribution framework with TD SYNNEX
- TD SYNNEX operates across more than 100 countries, providing enablement, services and digital platforms for technology partners.
- The intended scope includes industrial automation, software, AI, cybersecurity, intelligent infrastructure and electrification.
- The partners aim to reach new customers and buying teams through systems integrators, hyperscalers, software vendors and managed-service providers.
Agile Robots and Hitachi agree Physical AI manufacturing partnership
- The agreement covers robotic arms, mobile robots and Agile ONE, with AgileCore for simulation, control and orchestration.
- The partners plan to use Hitachi edge AI semiconductors and bring solutions to market through HMAX Industry and Agile customer channels.
- Longer-term work aims to coordinate multiple robots, machines and people across whole factory operations.
