Physical AI: Taking human-robot collaboration to the next level
A report by Capgemini Research Institute explores the potential of physical AI in enhancing human-robot collaboration across various industries. Executives show high interest in physical AI, driven by its potential to address labor shortages and improve flexibility and safety.
Capgemini Research Institute has published a report on physical AI, describing it as a shift towards more autonomous robotic action. Advances in technologies like foundation models and edge computing are driving its adoption. Physical AI is expected to enable previously impractical applications, such as hazardous operations and healthcare support. Executives cite improved flexibility and safety as key benefits, but scaling remains a challenge due to limited technology and operational readiness. Around 43% of executives link growing interest in physical AI to reshoring and reindustrialization efforts. Nearly two-thirds expect physical AI to reach scale within five years, but only 4% are already operating at scale.
