Prox Industries and ugo Inc. Advance Autonomous Robots with AI

Prox Industries and ugo Inc. are advancing their Physical AI research through a joint initiative focused on autonomous robot operations. The project involved fine-tuning the open-source Vision-Language-Action model 'π0.5' using ugo's Imitation Learning Kit and the humanoid robot ugo Pro.

Demonstrations included a dual-arm robot autonomously completing a packaging process, showcasing its ability to handle tasks effectively in real-world scenarios. This initiative reflects a shift towards adaptable robotics capable of responding to dynamic conditions, with future development aimed at integrating robotics and AI models for industrial applications. The implications for the industry include enhanced operational efficiency and potential market expansion for adaptable robotic solutions.
