Siemens Partners With Intrinsic on AI-Based Robotics, Automation
The two companies plan to investigate new methods to seamlessly bridge the gaps between robotics, automation engineering and IT development.
Siemens and Intrinsic have partnered to explore integrations and interfaces between Intrinsic’s robotics software (which is designed with AI-based capabilities) and Siemens Digital Industries with its open and interoperable portfolio for automating and operating industrial production. The two companies intend to investigate new methods to seamlessly bridge the gaps between robotics, automation engineering and IT development.
The partnership will drive the development process of flexible, AI-enabled robot work cells and facilitate their seamless operation, making industrial robotics more accessible and usable for more businesses, entrepreneurs and developers — particularly for new market segments like small- and medium-sized companies.
“Intrinsic’s mission is to democratize access to robotics. However, robotics is rarely decoupled from the production environment, where the most value is created today,” says Wendy Tan White, CEO at Intrinsic. “That’s why working with Siemens Digital Industries, an industry leading automation expert, is an exciting opportunity to bring joint solutions to the market in the future, so many more businesses can benefit from the value that robotics and automation can offer.”
Siemens says it is dedicated to bringing IT and OT closer together — the key principle of our Industrial Operations X portfolio. “We are impressed by Intrinsic’s open approach to industrial robotics and we are excited to explore with Intrinsic how coupling of AI-based robots and automation technology can be further accelerated,” says Rainer Brehm, CEO of Factory Automation at Siemens.
Both Siemens and Intrinsic will be exhibiting at Automatica 2023, a trade fair for intelligent automation and robotics, in Munich, Germany, June 27-30. On Tuesday, June 27, 1-2 p.m. CET, White and Brehm will join the Munich_i CEO Round Table, “Software: revolution for automation and robotics?”
Under the motto “Accelerate Transformation,” Siemens will be showcasing the latest technologies and specific use cases from the world of robotics, making them tangible for visitors in a test zone.
