…and cost efficiency.” Reger noted that vendors such as Kawasaki are already selling their own cobots based on NEURA's platform. NEURA is developing several types of cognitive robots, including a humanoid model. Source: NEURA Robotics Investors see convergence of AI, hardware European investors Lingotto, Vsquared Ventures, Primepulse, and HV Capital, led NEURA Robotics' latest funding. GP Bullhound advised NEURA throughout the transaction. The company previously raised about $80 million from investors including Han's Group. “NEURA operates at the confluence of AI and hardware development,” said Nikhil Srinivasan, managing partner at Lingotto, an investment management company owned by Exor N.V. “Germany…

…models of robots and cobots from ABB, Epson, Fanuc, Kawasaki, Staubli, Yaskawa, Universal Robot, and more. Meanwhile, OpenAI's ChatGPT has blazed a trail for Large Language Models (LLMs), setting the AI world on fire. In Microsoft's paper “ChatGPT for Robotics: Design Principles and Model Abilities,” a key challenge in applying AI innovation to robotics is observed: “Robotics is a diverse field where several platforms, scenarios, and tools exist. There exists an extensive variety of libraries and APIs….” The paper proposed a higher-level function library and prompt engineering tools to control robots with natural language. LLMs have huge potential in robotics,…

…10 virtual manipulators, including popular models from Clearpath and Kawasaki, said Andrews. “As robots get more complex, they need to be constandly rechecked and validated in configuration,” he added. “We're working with leading-edge innovators to figure out new use cases.” NVIDIA cited several examples of companies across industries using Isaac Sim. For instance, Deutsche Bahn is training AI models to handle “corner cases” that happen rarely in reality but are still important, such as luggage falling on a train track. Amazon Robotics is using Isaac Sim to train soft robot grippers and Omniverse for warehouse digital twins, while ETH Zurich…
