Our Vision: To Automate Tasks Too Complex for Traditional Automation by Enabling Machines to Observe, Learn, Reason & Act Like Humans Substantially accelerate speed of programming and training Increase agility, task sets and use cases Reduce need for human intervention and oversight Reduce cost of standing up and maintaining automation For mobile machines, evolve from human-in-the-loop to human-on-the-loop Eliminate need for continuous cloud connectivity
Automation of Complex Tasks Has Been Limited For Several Reasons: Large language models. Most industrial robots are highly programmed for a single specific task and cannot process variations in objects, tasks, or the environment Programming and implementation of industrial robots have been time-consuming and costly, often yielding an insufficient customer ROI Today’s state-of-the-art AI approaches (e.g., LLM1 for generative AI) require massive data sets to train models, limiting tasks solely to what is contained in the data sets
Physical Intelligence for a Wide-Array of Robotic Form Factors1 Expected to Enable Stationary and Mobile Robotic Platforms to be Agile and Autonomous, Reduce Human Intervention and Increase ROI Designed to work with most industrial robots being sold today. According to the Proficient Market Insights’ “Global Robot Operating System” report, ROS 1 robots comprised of 74% of the total ROS market in 2021, “Global Robot Operating System (ROS) Market 2022 Size Of $ (globenewswire.com).

Palladyne™ IQ: AI Software Platform for Robotics Real-Time Closed-Loop Autonomy Software to Enable Machines to Observe, Learn, Reason, and Act Like Humans Based on internal testing, actual figures will vary depending on complexity of the task. Act Precise robotic control & completion of tasks Completes the task by accurately controlling the manipulator arm, robot, and/or end effector Achieves complex combination of tasks over extended periods of time in a stable, safe, and precise manner Real-time perceiving, learning & decision-making occurs at the edge without retraining or cloud connectivity Learn Intelligent machine learning to accelerate onboarding for new & complex tasks Robots learn novel or complex combination of tasks via dynamic reasoning and learning Learning occurs with minimal demonstrations (1-5)1 Learning model adapts to environments Reason Human-like, AI-based reasoning to determine best course of action without human intervention Enables robots to adapt to unexpected events in real-time Generates real-time motion plans based on situational awareness at the edge Observe Advanced perception & observation to improve situational awareness Perceives environment using a mix of sensor inputs, e.g., vision, LiDAR, radar, acoustic, etc. Utilizes Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion to make perception more robust to sensor occlusion and noise
Expected Advantages of Palladyne IQ How Our Approach Differs Hardware agnostic1 Addresses robotic-specific challenges beyond integration Solves for system stability and pose estimation/end effector orientation Robots able to plan and execute complex combination of tasks over extended periods of time, even in dynamic and unstructured environments Designed to work with most industrial robots being sold today. According to the Proficient Market Insights’ “Global Robot Operating System” report, ROS 1 robots comprised of 74% of the total ROS market in 2021, “Global Robot Operating System (ROS) Market 2022 Size Of $ (globenewswire.com). Full stack, closed-loop autonomy enables adaptability to dynamic changes in environment or defined task without human intervention or reprogramming Uses probabilistic machine learning (ML) techniques to learn the task, accounting for uncertainty and variability Dynamic model inference methods require much less training data; robots can learn to generalize with only a few demonstrations (1-5)4 Computational efficiencies gained through use of Palladyne AI’s domain-specific language models Complex task-learning capabilities are similar to humans; in some cases, robots can be trained in significantly less time than it takes relying on current state-of-the-art approaches3 Enables edge computing; lower total cost of ownership (TCO) with no need to incur recurring cloud services costs Improves system implementation and startup times Fuses multi-sensor data inputs together to improve system flexibility & adaptability Flexible instructional input options for task model learning (i.e., LLMs, DSLs2, motion-capture-based teleoperation, video input, etc.) Can provide language-to-motion instructions ideal for edge computing/robotics applications; doesn’t require cost/latency associated with use of LLMs requiring connectivity to the Cloud Domain specific languages. Robotics Transformer 1 & 2 deep learning-based approach, 2022 – 2023. Based on internal testing, actual figures will vary depending on complexity of the task.
Our AI Approach vs "Brute-Force" Foundation Models How the Palladyne AI Approach Differs from the Traditional Foundational Model Approach Inference Constraint satisfaction problems Aspect Foundational Model for Robotics Palladyne AI Approach Model Size Large – often in the range of hundreds of millions to billions of parameters Compact – a simplified model / method for decision making (i.e., symbolic and modular representations) resulting in smaller models Required Data Engineering Extensive pre-processing required to combine multiple types of data (e.g., images, text, actions, robot joint states, end effector, etc.) and effectively align diverse inputs Minimal – focuses on task and motion-specific capabilities and leverages domain expertise to provide context to robots (e.g., technician familiar with a task) Training Data Requires massive, diverse datasets with multiple types of labels, such as simulated and real-world robotic tasks Uses smaller, domain-specific datasets, focusing on specific scenarios and constraints based upon the use case Computational Requirements High – requires GPUs and cloud computing resources for model training and use1 due to the complex, resource-intensive nature of robotics Moderate – edge computing primarily solves optimization and other complex problems2 with GPUs dedicated for perception and the Cloud is not required Time / Costs High – persistent cloud compute and high number of parameters required for model training resulting in significant time and cost impact Low – no cloud compute or access required Robotic Applicability Not yet achievable due to the limitation of robotic data, with the focus on generating a vast number of general-purpose task models to be applied across a diverse range of scenarios (e.g., manipulation, navigation, language-guided tasks) – not a 1:1 translation for robotics Robot Specific Generalization – Focused on complex robotics use cases for enterprise applications that were previously too difficult for robots due to their dynamic nature, which also limits the time and cost of developing AI models Repeatability Moderate – exact repeatability challenged due to reliance on learned generalizations from data (generally varies between 25 ~ 80%) High – achieved through planning AI that leverages constraints to deliver more consistent outcomes Success Rate Low – requires vast amounts of relevant, labeled data that is difficult and expensive to obtain and mass groups of people are not incentivized to create relevant data for robotic systems High – for well-defined tasks within the planning model’s domain, limited by the accuracy of constraints and physics Closed-loop Autonomy Smart enough to “see” and act within defined boundaries but are not yet fully autonomous in their perception, reasoning, motion planning, or task creation to execute actions Similar to how humans use their senses to achieve a successful outcome, full-stack, closed-loop autonomy at the edge gives robots the ability to observe, learn, reason, and act
