Kick-off Physical AI & Robotics (Virtual Participation)

The AI Park, in collaboration with Lattice Semiconductor and i-LogiX, is launching a new Expert Group on Physical AI and Robotics. It brings together machine builders, suppliers, robotics providers, and researchers. Work will focus on the questions that determine deployment: safety and certification, takt time and repeatability, the transition from pilot project to application. The kick-off will take place as part of the Innovation Challenge 2026 of the Ecosystem Smart Lower Bavaria. The venue is Kastenhof, Oberer Stadtplatz 20, Room Herzogssaal. Agenda 12:30 Frank Förster, From Digitalization to Physical AI 13:00 Marcus Giehrl, i-LogiX, What Makes Technology Usable in Europe 13:30 Karl Wachswender, Lattice Semiconductor, The Lattice View on Physical AI and Humanoids 13:45 Roundtable: What and who is specifically needed for robotics to transition from pilot project to application? 14:30 Discussion and Outlook 15:00 End Questions we are working on What is missing for a pilot project to become an application? Who certifies, and according to which standard? Where is the real bottleneck, in the model, in the sensors, or in validation? What is already cost-effective today, and what is not? What you will take away An honest overview of where Physical AI stands in industrial application. Contact with companies facing the same questions. And a say in which topics the group will address in 2027.
