Episode Synopsis

This is you Robotics Industry Insider: AI & Automation News podcast.The robotics and automation sector continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible, evidenced by a surge in market momentum, transformative technologies, and high-profile collaborations propelling the industry into its next phase. Data Bridge Market Research estimates the global industrial automation market will be valued at nearly 197 billion dollars in 2025, surging to more than 372 billion dollars by 2032, reflecting robust annual growth as industries look to advanced robotics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to sharpen operational efficiency and address evolving manufacturing needs. North America’s advanced infrastructure makes it a world leader in automation adoption, yet Asia-Pacific is gaining ground rapidly thanks to aggressive investment and rapid industrialization.Recent weeks showcased significant advances. Ati Motors, for example, hosted its Product Day 2025 to unveil the Sherpa 10K, an autonomous mobile robot with a remarkable towing capacity of 10,000 pounds, engineered for precise navigation in tight spaces using advanced 3D LiDAR and sensor technology. The accompanying Sherpa Mecha integrates sensor fusion and modular intelligence into a humanoid-style platform, signaling a shift toward multi-disciplinary solutions blending artificial intelligence, industrial design, and robotics control. Ati’s “AtiVerse” artificial intelligence platform is now orchestrating fleet-level intelligence for autonomous systems in demanding industrial environments. Ati Motors is inviting research partnerships to further extend application boundaries.Elsewhere, ABB Robotics and startup Cosmic Buildings launched AI-enabled microfactories in Southern California, deploying collaborative robots to speed up post-wildfire construction. In parallel, Delta Electronics, at Automation Taipei 2025, debuted collaborative robots integrated with cognitive artificial intelligence modules tuned for smarter and safer assembly applications on factory floors. Both cases highlight the rise of flexible automation and the growing importance of collaborative robots able to work seamlessly alongside humans.A technical trend to note is the expanding role of swarm robotics and generative artificial intelligence in manufacturing. J.P. Morgan has identified long-term investment opportunities as these innovations promise to reimagine everything from aerospace production to automated quality control. The emerging use of scalable, robot-agnostic operating systems—such as OpenMind’s OM1 platform—further supports accelerated deployment and integration across diverse industrial environments.For stakeholders, these breakthroughs offer actionable areas of focus: investing in scalable robot fleets, upskilling teams to manage AI-operated workflows, and exploring partnerships that merge engineering, machine vision, and advanced controls. With large-scale automation set to nearly double its market value this decade, the next wave will be defined by human-machine collaboration, real-time data intelligence, and adaptive AI-driven manufacturing.
