Keynote Panel: Building the Next Era of Robot Autonomy
Wednesday, May 27, 9:05 AM - 9:50 AM
As robots move beyond enclosed industrial settings into shared human environments, safety and real-time performance must be engineered into systems from the start. QNX President, John Wall, will join executives from Amazon Robotics, Locus Robotics, and Universal Robots for the opening keynote panel to explore how leading organizations are enabling safe autonomy at scale.
Sensor Fusion and Deterministic Safety
Digital Factory Automation & Collision Avoidance
QNX will visualize the future of the factory floor with a production-style Digital Factory environment. A QNX-powered high-fidelity robotic arm will demonstrate real-time object detection and avoidance, responding immediately and deterministically whenever an object or person enters its path of motion.
QNX Everywhere: Accessible Robotics Prototyping
From Concept to Commercial-Grade
Designed to lower the barrier to entry for early-stage development, this interactive station features a robotic arm built on affordable hardware. Visitors will see how developers can prototype quickly for free, and scale confidently to production without rewriting code.
AI-Enabled Robotics on Intel and NVIDIA Hardware
Powered by high-performance Intel and NVIDIA hardware, this demonstration will use AI-based motion tracking to replicate human movement with precision. Watch an on-screen avatar mirror your motions in real-time, illustrating the low-latency responsiveness required for next-generation humanoid and AI-enabled robotics platforms.
Taming Software-Defined Complexity
QNX will highlight the QNX General Embedded Development Platform (GEDP) through an interactive display reflecting our four decades of reliability in mission-critical software. This exhibit will spotlight how QNX helps teams simplify complex architectures while maintaining performance and security from the SoC to the cloud.
