Intel’s Robotics AI Suite is an open development platform for physical AI on Intel Core and Intel Core Ultra processors. | Source: Intel AI is moving from digital environments into the physical world, where robots and autonomous systems must sense, reason, and act in real time. For robotics developers, this shift creates a new challenge, according to Intel Corp. Now, success isn’t defined by model performance alone, but by the ability to deploy AI into systems that are responsive, re
AI is moving from digital environments into the physical world, requiring robots and autonomous systems to sense, reason, and act in real time. For robotics developers, this shift means success now depends on deploying AI into systems that are responsive, reliable, safe, and scalable, rather than just achieving strong model performance. At an upcoming conference, an Intel executive will discuss the infrastructure needed to transition physical AI from prototype to production, including open, edge-first architectures that integrate perception, sensor fusion, motion planning, control, and real-time AI across different hardware and software environments. The session will address why robotics innovation requires a practical deployment foundation supporting flexibility and interoperability across manufacturing, logistics, field robotics, humanoids, and autonomous systems.

Arduino VENTUNO Q’s dual-brain architecture pairs a Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 Sprocessor with a real-time STM32H5 microcontroller. | Source: Qualcomm Arduino S.r.l., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Technologies Inc., recently opened pre-orders for VENTUNO Q, a edge AI platform powered by the Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 Series. Arduino built the board for developers, prioritizing familiarity and ease of use with the right software, accessories, and extensions. While this is Arduino’s first intenti

Faster simulation tools could help roboticists train autonomous systems more efficiently by compressing months of testing into weeks.
Helicon is using robots for carbon fiber parts production. Source: Helicon Advanced composites offer strength and stiffness at low weight, but manufacturing them at scale remains slow, labor-intensive, and difficult to automate. Helicon Industries is building automated manufacturing systems designed to bring composites into high-volume production, starting with carbon fiber. The Los Angeles-based startup has emerged from stealth with $16 million in seed funding, led by AlleyCorp. Helicon aims to
