No GPS, no light, no map. Philadelphia's Exyn just joined a national lab team under the DOE's $29.5M Mine of the Future push, sending autonomous drones to find critical minerals underground. Its drones already cut survey scans from 40 minutes to 5. Source: Exyn. Video: Exyn Technologies #Robotics

Factory robots that retool in minutes, not weeks. Industrial Next (SF) builds AI work cells that learn new tasks from simulation and demo instead of months of custom programming. Now BMW is evaluating them for car production. Source: TechCrunch. Image: Industrial Next #Robotics #ManufacturingAI

OpenAI just joined the humanoid race for real. Sam Altman confirmed on a podcast: "We will" build a humanoid, with a demo by 2027. His thesis: the brain matters more than the body. Hiring is underway across actuators, motion control and supply chain. Source: Engadget #Robotics #Humanoid #PhysicalAI

$400M says the runway is optional. The Navy put $150M more into Shield AI's X-BAT, the AI-piloted fighter jet that takes off vertically from a ship's deck. Shield matched it with $150M of its own. Flight tests start this year. Source: Shield AI. Video: Shield AI #Robotics #DefenseTech
