German-based Agile Robots has announced a partnership with Google DeepMind to develop robots with the artificial intelligence research lab, becoming the latest robotics company to partner with the company. The partnership involves Agile Robotics implementing Google's Gemini Robotics foundation models into its bots and using the data collected by the robots to improve the underlying Gemini AI models. The companies will work together to test, fine tune, and deploy robots that use these models in industrial use cases across sectors including electronics manufacturing, automotive, data centers, and logistics. The deal is long-term but does not specify duration or pricing. This is part of a trend of robotic partnerships on the rise as companies develop robots that can operate autonomously.
