We're extremely excited to introduce Proxie, our first cobot, to the world! Proxie is designed to handle today's material movement tasks, moving carts, boxes, and totes, while seamlessly working alongside humans in logistics, manufacturing, healthcare and ultimately every sector. Highlighting some of the novel design elements: Embodied Empathy: Trustworthy, human-like interactions through Proxie’s friendly eyes and smooth, intuitive movements. Glide 360 Effortless, intuitive, and smooth swerve drive architecture ensures Proxie navigates complex environments with ease. Scout Sense: With lidar and visual object recognition, Proxie navigates and adapts dynamically, identifying obstacles and collaborating effortlessly in complex spaces. Flex Grasp: From grabbing cart handles to loading totes, Proxie’s adaptable gripper technology simplifies handling, with hardware evolving in sync with AI advances. Future-Forward AI: GPU-accelerated AI architecture ensures Proxie stays ahead with the highest intelligence available today, ready to scale with advancing tech. Check out the video.

We ♥️ you Proxie #6!
CEO & Founder Collaborative Robotics. AI & robotics leader. Formerly Distinguished Engineer at Amazon and CTO at Scale AI.
I want to introduce you to Proxie #6. This picture was taken this morning as Proxie #6 was getting ready for another full shift of cart movement. Proxie #6 is a workhorse, having been in production service since October, and currently leading our fleet with 4,529 carts moved. It’s scary to send your first robots off to work moving carts that weigh hundreds of pounds traveling long distances in warehouses that can fluctuate in temperature by 60 degrees between summer and winters. Proxie is the general-purpose humanoid industrial customers actually need… trustworthy, adaptable, useful… and a little less… human. Good luck today Proxie #6, keep doing your thing. #humanoids #offtowork

About to go on stage at HumanX, but I’m most excited about getting this photo. Vinod Khosla and Alfred Lin are two of the most iconic investors Silicon Valley has ever seen. The confidence they’ve shown in me and our vision at Cobot - Collaborative Robotics, Inc since the very beginning has been a huge motivation and inspiration for me. To get this photo of us together is a rare opportunity and a dream come true. #ai #robotics #humanx

Today's Sunday "Top of Mind" video discusses our abundant future. This is a topic Vinod Khosla recently spoke about that I've also been thinking about a lot. In today's world in developed countries, most of us do not need to worry about raising our own food. Yet in the late 1700's over 76% of society worked in agriculture. AI and robotics are going to eliminate much of the work we do every day. In this video, I also discuss Amazon's step function jump with their reported 25% productivity and 25% speed improvement at their new SHV1 facility. This is a massive jump. I suspect Amazon is not that many years away from fully automating receiving, stowing, picking, packing and shipping your items... and then delivering it to you by drone. Imagine a future where no human every touches an item you order? That future is coming sooner than we realize. Hope you enjoy this one. Please leave your thoughts in the comments!

Great tips from our CEO, Brad Porter, on how to position yourself to land a great robotics internship. Enjoy! Brad posts new videos every Sunday. Follow him to keep up.

My latest Sunday "Top of Mind" video drop! This time the topic is "How to Land a Great Robotics Internship!" It's tough out there right now, lots of competition for few internships. Build your resume to differentiate. Here are few tips in case you don't have time to watch: 🎓 Simulation experience is in demand. Highlight the tools you've used. NVIDIA Omniverse IsaacSim skills are particularly in demand. 🎓 Low-level debugging skills are extremely valuable. Learn to use the oscilloscope and trace back to the firmware. 🎓 Highlight any experience you have in the workforce. If you've worked in a warehouse or grocery store or hospital or anywhere where you've seen the opportunity to automate physical tasks, that's valuable. 🎓 If you can't land a role with a big tech company or a robotics startup, look around for roles that get you hands-on mechanically or electrically for the summer, maybe helping install a 6DOF arm with a local manufacturer, or repairing equipment. What other tips do you have? What's worked for you, or your kids, or your neighbors, to land a great internship? More next week!
