The show and conference are in Detroit, May 12-16, with more than 875 exhibitors, more than 40,000 registrants, and more than 140 conference sessions on robotics, machine vision, artificial intelligence and other industrial automation topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Physical artificial intelligence (AI) models that can understand and interact with the physical world will transform today\u2019s rule-based automation, Talla suggested. Nvidia\u2019s ecosystem of industrial software, hardware, AI and robotics partners are helping accelerate AI for industrial transformation. Talla, with a Ph.D. in computer engineering, spent a decade with Texas Instruments before Nvidia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Robot use will accelerate; AI helps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor first time I feel like future is coming to the present. Industry has implemented automation for last 30 years. For the last 10 years, deep learning has come about.\u201d Now automation is integrating AI, he said, and bringing greater autonomy. However, Talla said, many traditional installations are brittle, creating tough challenges for AI, robots and humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith AI and robots reaching a reasonable maturity, we\u2019re looking at how ecosystem partners are taking advantage of these technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talla said Nvidia\u2019s partner list includes every major robotic company. Robotics is the next $10 trillion industry. Why? 2 billion cameras gather data for potential use in 10 million factories, 200,000 warehouses; 1.5 billion cars and trucks and a future billion humanoid robots. Some of these are now, some in the medium-term of 1 to 3 years and some longer. Sometimes technologies progress with an adoption curve; others, like ChatGPT, progress rapidly in steep steps, reaching 100 million monthly users within two months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Labor shortages, reshoring and robotics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything we do can be automated. More than one humanoid robot per human isn\u2019t inconceivable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Labor shortages, reshoring manufacturing and changes in robot strategies are shifting industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Half a trillion manufacturing resources have been planned to move to the U.S., or nearby, recently, Talla said, creating opportunities for more autonomy and automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why now? The ChatGPT moment for robotics is here as two technologies have reached the tipping point in last 12 months: Physical AI and simulation. Simulation is faster, easier and cheaper. Nvidia chips are tested in simulation first. Robotics, not as much. Over 15 years, our ecosystem of partners is creating a different trajectory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Data challenge for training robots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"735\" src=\"https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-1024x735.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-130927\" style=\"width:900px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-1024x735.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-768x551.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-1536x1102.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.controleng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CTL2505_WEB_NEWS_Automate2025-Nvidia-Fig2-Robotic-training-2048x1469.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Figure 2: The robotics training challenge was divided into three areas (and showed how types of artificial intelligence can help) by Deepu Talla, vice president of robotics and edge AI, Nvidia, during his keynote presentation, \u201cIndustrial autonomy in the era of physical AI,\u201d at Automate 2025.

Open data sets train a foundation model that becomes specialized. These are based on models trained on data accessible from everyone. Your own data will be added to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When will these technologies be integrated?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some applications are happening now, in the last year or so. Simulating a robotic fleet, for instance, is in research and development, with the tipping point for implementation accelerating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can old-fashioned manufacturers evolve?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology needs to improve. That\u2019s happening, and integration of new technologies has to be seamless. ChatGPT had record fast application to 100 million users because of ease of use. Increasingly people are using generative AI for programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will humanoid or other robotics expand more quickly?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Humanoid robots are the largest opportunity for the future. Experiments to develop them are faster. The world is now designed around humans so data collection for developing humanoid robots is faster. Humanoid robot development will advance development of AI models. Parts of those models will be applied to other robots, such as paths for automated mobile robots (AMRs) and robot arm paths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How will digital twins be used?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s easiest for brownfield applications to create digital twin because everything exists and can be captured with cameras. It\u2019s easier to build and add new autonomous robots. Greenfield installations will develop a digital twin first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mark T.
