NXP Semiconductors N.V. announced innovative robotics solutions for reliable, secure, real-time data processing and transport and advanced networking, enabling sensor fusion, machine vision and precision motor control. First in a series of NXP’s foundational robotics solutions, these ready-to-deploy solutions were developed in collaboration with NVIDIA and implement NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge with NXP’s highly integrated SoCs. This reduces discrete components, significantly shrinking footprint, power and cost, while also simplifying the software complexity of robotic sensing and actuation, including humanoid form factors.
Physical AI is the next frontier of innovation, featuring systems that can sense, interpret, and interact with their surroundings with precision, reliability and safety. Humanoid robots are one of the most advanced embodiments of physical AI, requiring secure, reliable, low-latency data processing and transport throughout the robot body to enable synchronized motion, dense sensor fusion and advanced actuation.
NXP’s new integrated robot body solutions directly address this challenge, delivering powerful edge intelligence and low-latency networking to enable safe, secure, real-time communication. These solutions seamlessly integrate NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge into NXP’s software enablement, allowing developers to easily implement real-time processing and establish a direct transport route between the body and pre-specified regions of the robot brain, substantially reducing latency. This significantly simplifies the challenges of bringing AI into the physical world, where real-time decision making is a critical requirement.
“Physical AI is redefining what machines can do in the real world, and humanoid robots represent the most complex expression of that revolution,” said Mr. Charles Dachs, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Secure Connected Edge, NXP Semiconductors. “By combining NXP’s deep expertise in edge processing, secure networking, functional safety and real-time control with NVIDIA robotics platforms, we are greatly simplifying physical AI development, enabling seamless connectivity between the physical AI edge and the central brain. This is just the beginning of what NXP will deliver to accelerate the ecosystem for physical AI.”
“The development of autonomous machines requires a high-performance computing architecture that can synchronize complex motor controls with real-time perception,” said Mr. Deepu Talla, vice president of robotics and edge AI at NVIDIA. “By integrating NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge into its edge portfolio, NXP is providing developers with a scalable foundation to accelerate the deployment of physical AI.”
