Infineon Technologies accelerates the development of next-generation humanoid robots by strengthening cooperation with NVIDIA.

Infineon announced on the 17th that it plans to accelerate the entire process from robot design to commercial deployment by advancing system architecture for physical AI together with NVIDIA.

The core of this collaboration is combining Infineon's motor control, microcontroller, power management, and security technologies with NVIDIA's AI, robotics, and simulation platforms.

Through this, it supports humanoid robots to operate safely and stably in real-world environments and focuses on connecting technology that has remained in the experimental stage to large-scale commercialization.

Humanoid robots are highly complex systems that must perceive their surroundings, make decisions in real time, and move precisely in spaces designed for humans.

To implement this, various semiconductor-based functions such as sensing, computation, driving, connectivity, and energy management must be organically combined.

Infineon is increasing development efficiency by integrating these core capabilities into NVIDIA's robotics and digital twin platforms.

In particular, Infineon supports the pre-verification of robot motion and cognitive functions in a virtual environment by utilizing digital twins of smart actuators and key sensors.

This technology is NVIDIA ISAIt is applied to ac Sim and Isaac Lab, enabling precise control and movement of robots before the hardware is manufactured.

This can reduce early-stage development issues and accelerate the time-to-market for humanoid robots in the logistics, manufacturing, and service sectors.

Safety and security are also important pillars of the collaboration. Infineon supports safety design across hardware and software in conjunction with NVIDIA's Halos safety framework.

It enhances the overall reliability of the robot system through hardware security modules, secure boot, encrypted communication, and secure update functions.

The two companies are also pursuing the development of a common system architecture for humanoid robots featuring ultra-low latency and high power density.

Infineon's microcontrollers and power and security solutions are combined with the NVIDIA Jetson-based platform to provide the foundation for the implementation of next-generation autonomous robots.

The industry views this collaboration as a significant turning point that will accelerate the commercialization of humanoid robots.

Infineon and NVIDIA are working to build a next-generation robot ecosystem that will lead the era of physical AI through collaboration spanning from semiconductors to AI platforms.
