"The term, which is sometimes called "embodied AI," describes the use of AI outside the digital world and into the real, physics-based one. AI models, combined with sensors, cameras, and the motorized controls, allow that physical thing - humanoid robot, drone, autonomous forklift, robotaxi - to detect and understand what's in this real environment and make decisions to operate within it. And it was all over the place from agriculture and robotics to autonomous vehicles and drones, industrial manufacturing, and wearables."
"Hyundai had one of the busiest and largest exhibits with a near-constant line wrapped around the entrance. The Korean automaker wasn't showing cars. Nope, it was robots of various forms, including the Atlas humanoid robot, courtesy of its subsidiary Boston Dynamics. There were also innovations that have come out of Hyundai Motor Group Robotics LAB, including a robot that charges electric autonomous vehicles, and a four-wheel electric platform called the Mobile Eccentric Droid (MobEd) that is going into production this year."
CES in Las Vegas showed a retreat of U.S. automakers and a surge of autonomous vehicle tech companies, Chinese automakers, software and chip firms, and robotics exhibitors. Embodied AI systems — AI models combined with sensors, cameras, and motorized controls — enabled robots, drones, autonomous forklifts, and robotaxis to perceive environments and make operating decisions. Demonstrations spanned agriculture, industrial manufacturing, wearables, and transportation. Hyundai emphasized robotics over cars, showcasing Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, a robot that charges electric autonomous vehicles, and the Mobile Eccentric Droid (MobEd), a four-wheel electric platform slated for production this year. The show emphasized physical AI across sectors.
