Humanoid robots are coming. But there’s one problem the whole industry is quietly trying to solve.
Every robot has cameras, lidar, radar all generating massive amounts of data that needs to reach the processor in real time, over long distances, with zero errors. That’s an incredibly hard problem. And until recently, every company was solving it differently with proprietary cables and incompatible connectors.
Then came MIPI A-PHY. Think of it like USB but for robots and autonomous systems. One open standard, any sensor, any processor, 32Gbps speeds, automotive-grade reliability. Already live in mass production in Geely-Volvo vehicles. Mobileye chose it for their autonomous driving chip deployed across multiple global automakers.
And yes automotive Ethernet exists. But it solves a different problem. Ethernet moves data between processors. A-PHY moves raw sensor data from the edge a camera sitting on a robot’s wrist to the central brain. They work together, not against each other.
The company co-chairing the MIPI humanoid robotics standards group, making the only production-ready A-PHY chips available today is $VLN. $86M cash. Zero debt.
Humanoid robot market hits $51B by 2035. Every single one needs a nervous system.
What am I missing? 👇
Thank you @PrepRedzoneWI and @MJ_NFLDraft for great event! There was a lot of good competition. Thanks as well to @CoachSeveCUC for the instruction and energy!
Former Minnesota-Moorhead QB Jack Strand had pre-draft visits with the Panthers and Falcons, per sources.
A big guy (6-3⅞, 243 pounds) with a big arm, Strand holds every major school passing record, throwing for 13,155 yards and 126 TDs in 42 games.
