Days to minutes. @anybotics now pulls complete, time-accurate data directly from deployed ANYmal robots through Foxglove, replacing a manual workflow and consolidating six tools into one. See how the team is scaling reliability, uptime, and safety:

5 days to #Actuate26#! Down to our last few expo passes (will probably sell out by Saturday) so get your ticket today! Excited to announce Tuesday's panel: Data Wars: Human Data vs UMI vs Teleop. Moderated by @ryancjulian (@NVIDIARobotics), with Naveen Kuppuswamy (@FlexionAI), @philippswu (@xdofai), @ColinearDevin (@GeneralistAI), and @ashwinb96 (@physical_int) Aug 18–19, SF Tickets:

🤖 You might think it's SF robotics week, but it's not. 1,000+ robotics developers are flying in for #Actuate26# the week of August 17th and there are so many events! You may not be able to get a ticket to Actuate, but here's a good list of events you can still check out:

#Actuate2026# @PathRobotics and @matter_vp are hosting a low-key breakfast the next morning: coffee, food from Hilda & Jesse, and a chance to keep talking shop with the people you just spent two days with. No agenda, no pitches. Just a good excuse to compare notes on where robotics is headed, catch up with the Path team, and meet a few more people building in the physical world. Space is limited and registration needs approval, so request your spot early.

Attending @Foxglove Actuate this year? Grab drinks and dinner with our team on August 19th from 5-9pm at Radhaus, Fort Mason’s own beer hall. Join the engineers and product leaders bringing autonomous systems to life on fifty-ton machines, and learn how Bedrock Robotics solves some of the hardest perception, machine learning, and data problems in physical AI.

Actuate is quickly becoming the annual gathering ground for the robotics community. Community-led events now run Monday–Thursday around #Actuate26#. Here’s a full list if you’re in SF the week of August 17th:

12 days to #Actuate26#. First panel: VLA vs WAM: do robots need to predict the world, or just the next action? Moderated by @chris_j_paxton (Agility Robotics), with @Ben_Burchfiel (Walden Robotics), Armon Shariati (Shield AI), @danfei_xu (NVIDIA) & @jnmacdnld (Bonsai Robotics). Aug 18–19, SF Tickets:

LanceDB is headed to #Actuate26# by @foxglove in 15 days 🤖 Robotics teams generate huge volumes of video, LiDAR, sensor data, embeddings, and metadata. Come chat with us about making it all searchable and usable for curation, training, and evaluation from one table. See you at Booth 15 👋

15 days until #Actuate26#! Excited to have Alex Kendall, Co-Founder & CEO at @wayve_ai, as a speaker this year! Alex pioneered an end-to-end AI approach to self-driving at Cambridge, using deep learning to build a general-purpose driving intelligence that understands its surroundings and makes decisions through computer vision. Wayve's embodied AI platform adapts to different vehicle architectures and OEMs without requiring HD maps, making scalable autonomy commercially viable for the mass market and backed by $1.3B from SoftBank, Microsoft, and NVIDIA. Full Access passes are sold out! But, you can still hear our keynote presentations and fireside chats (including this one with Alex Kendall) with an Expo Pass. Limited passes remaining, so grab yours today!

19 days until #Actuate26#! Excited to have @keenanwyrobek, Co-Founder & CTO at @zipline, as a speaker this year! Before co-founding Zipline, Keenan co-created ROS at Willow Garage, which became the global standard for robotics development. Zipline now operates the world's largest drone delivery network, delivering medical supplies, blood, and consumer goods at scale across multiple countries including the US, where it has earned FAA Part 135 certification. Space for this year's Actuate is limited. Get your tickets to hear Keenan, and 20+ other technical experts in autonomous robotics, share their challenges & breakthroughs on stage:

20 days until #Actuate26#! Excited to have Engin Anil, VP of Software, Autonomy, and Foundation Models at Cobot, as a speaker this year! Engin holds a PhD from Carnegie Mellon and brings deep expertise in autonomous systems and robotics AI, now leading Cobot's software and foundation model strategy. Cobot's Proxie Gen2 is a mobile manipulation robot with two arms and the ability to haul 1,500 lb loads, finding its own work by building a real-time model of the facility with no WMS integration required — and has already logged over 12,000 operating hours in production. Space for this year's Actuate is limited. Get your tickets to hear Engin, and 20+ other technical experts in autonomous robotics, share their challenges & breakthroughs on stage:

21 days until #Actuate26#! Excited to have @FidlerSanja, VP of AI Research at @nvidia, as a speaker this year! A co-founder of the Vector Institute and Associate Professor at the University of Toronto, Sanja has built NVIDIA's Spatial Intelligence Lab in Toronto into one of the leading research groups at the intersection of computer vision, 3D scene understanding, and robotics simulation. Her lab's work on synthetic data generation, 3D content creation, and vision-language models is core infrastructure powering the next generation of robot training pipelines and physical AI systems. Space for this year's Actuate is limited. Get your tickets to hear Sanja, and 20+ other technical experts in autonomous robotics, share their challenges & breakthroughs on stage:
