Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, has announced further collaborations with NVIDIA to supercharge the development of safer and smarter industrial AI (Artificial Intelligence) mobile robots.

The global leader in industrial automation and digital transformation, Rockwell Automation connects the imaginations of people with the potential of technology to expand what is humanly possible, making the world more productive and more sustainable.

Earlier this year, Rockwell Automation announced its ongoing work with NVIDIA to increase the scale and scope of AI in manufacturing. The collaboration is now expanding to involve robotics, helping drive the use of AI in autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to improve performance and efficiency.

Unlocking Unrealised Potential Is Rockwell Automation’s Ultimate Goal

Rockwell brings AMRs and production automation applications to industrial customers who are looking for increased efficiencies in their factories. This will help unlock unrealised potential in this space via the integration of the NVIDIA Isaac robotics platform.

“We’re invigorated by this continued collaboration with NVIDIA,” said Ryan Gariepy, CTO at OTTO Motors by Rockwell Automation. “Rockwell’s industrial AI expertise, combined with NVIDIA AI and robotics technologies, is going to help drive an exciting new generation of autonomous mobile robots.”

Rockwell Automation also continues its work to integrate NVIDIA Omniverse Cloud application programming interfaces (APIs) with its Emulate3D software, bringing users data interoperability, live collaboration, and photo-realistic graphics rendering for designing, building, and operating industrial-scale digital twins of production systems.

According to the recently released “State of Smart Manufacturing Report,” AI ranks as the top feature manufacturers believe will drive the biggest business outcomes. In fact, 83% of manufacturers expect to use generative AI in their operations in 2024. As part of this collaboration, the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork™ now includes NVIDIA, giving Rockwell customers more applications to help make their operations more resilient, agile, and sustainable.
