High-stakes autonomy is about the mission, not just tech. @robopgh sat down with Dr. Sanjiv Singh, CEO of @NEAutonomy, to discuss autonomous casualty evacuation. Topics cover everything from flying the 1st autonomous helicopter in 2010 to removing crews from harm's way.
Rewatching @PeggyJ at #AbundanceSummit is worth your time.
She covers what actually changed when AI replaced classical controls, why Digit's knees are backward β and why that was the right engineering call β and what moving outside the workcell means for anyone evaluating humanoid deployment.
Concrete and specific. No vague promises about what humanoids will eventually do.

Hellbender and https://t.co/Y15w4MmC8N are scaling their partnership to advance edge AI. By integrating Veloβs perception software across more Hellbender devices, the collaboration expands capabilities for safe mobility and autonomous systems in real-world environments π
Pittsburgh went to Boston to move robotics past the lab and into the real world π οΈ At the Robotics Summit, @robopgh Executive Director Jennifer Apicella led a panel on scaling companies for business impact.
π€ The industry shift is clear: deployment and sustainable growth.
@GraySwanAI, a @CarnegieMellon spinoff, just raised $40M to scale its enterprise AI security platform π By pressure-testing frontier models for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta, the company builds the safety infrastructure enterprises need to confidently deploy autonomous AI agents.
@robopgh is assisting @RoboticsInvest in Boston to build knowledge, relationships, and market insights. Strategic networking and roundtables drive critical industry conversations. Key interactions pave the way for investment, adoption, and bringing direct value back to Pittsburgh
Meet Gold Member Seegrid. Seegrid develops autonomous mobile robots and software that automate material handling across industrial environments, supporting reliable operations in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers. π€ https://t.co/dbkaJ3Rx9W
Breakthrough robotics companies rarely start with a business plan. In a new interview with @robopgh, Dr. Sanjiv Singh, CEO of @NEAutonomy, shares how @carnegiemellon research evolved from ground systems to the modernization of a Vietnam-era Huey helicopter with autonomous tech.
Global markets are being shaped in Pittsburgh. Robotics and AI Discovery Day highlights an ecosystem built to scale innovation. As Meredith Meyer Grelli noted, companies are bringing technology to market and shaping industries worldwide.
