integrated approach will help accelerate the evolution from prototypes to commercially viable humanoid robots operating safely alongside humans,&#8221; said TI\u2019s Giovannu Campanella.<\/p>\n<p>Nvidia\u2019s vice-president of robotics, Deepu Talla, said: \u201cThe integration of Texas Instruments\u2019 sensing and power management technologies with the Nvidia Jetson Thor platform provides developers with a functional safety-capable foundation to accelerate the deployment of next-generation physical AI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TI&#8217;s mmWave radar sensor, <a rel=\"image\"

enables scalable low-latency, 3D perception and safety awareness for physical AI applications.<\/p>\n<p>By fusing camera and radar data, the solution improves object detection, localisation and tracking while reducing false positives for confident, real-time decision-making in humanoid robots.<\/p>\n<p>This approach enables human-like perception that works reliably in challenging conditions \u2013 from low light and bright glare to fog and dust indoors and outdoors \u2013 and addresses a critical safety gap that has limited real-world deployment of humanoid robots.<\/p>\n<p>For example, while cameras may not reliably detect glass doors or reflective surfaces, radar provides consistent detection of these transparent obstacles, enabling smooth navigation in places such as office buildings, hospitals and retail environments.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.electronicsweekly.com\/tag\/robotics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See all our Robotics
