Fanuc America announced a strategic collaboration with Google to advance Physical AI capabilities in its robot systems, leveraging Google’s state-of-the-art technologies. As part of this initiative, Fanuc is advancing its open platforms and Physical AI capabilities to accelerate automation by applying the latest development in AI across its robotics product lineup. “Manufacturers are moving beyond the question of whether to use AI and focusing on how to apply it where it matters most – on the factory floor,” said Mike Cicco, president and CEO, Fanuc America. “By combining Fanuc’s industrial-grade robotics with Google’s advanced AI, we’re enabling customers to take on more complex, variable production while maintaining the reliability and performance that production environments demand.”
