Agile Robots plans to produce 1,000 to 2,000 small humanoid robots with NVIDIA in 2027, according to Reuters. Production is due to begin late this year.

Agile Robots CEO Zhaopeng Chen told Reuters about the production target as NVIDIA expanded its partnerships with European manufacturers and startups at its GTC conference in Berlin.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said Europe’s engineering expertise gives the region an advantage in physical AI and robotics. NVIDIA, which supplies processors and software used in robotic control systems, says it has committed nearly $10 billion to Europe's technology ecosystem.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
