LG to Unveil Its Next-Gen Humanoid Robot, Built on NVIDIA Isaac GR00T
LG announced they're developing a next-generation bipedal humanoid robot built using NVIDIA Isaac GR00T, NVIDIA's open reasoning humanoid foundation model, for a public unveiling in the first quarter of next year.
LG and NVIDIA signed a memorandum of understanding on August 13 at NVIDIA's headquarters in Santa Clara, California, with Chairman and CEO of LG Corp, Kwang Mo Koo and NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang in attendance, marking a shift from strategic blueprints into full execution across robotics, AI factories and mobility.
Under the agreement, LG also plans to validate LG CLOiD wheel-based robots at LG Electronics' washing machine manufacturing line in Tennessee, build AI factory reference sites using NVIDIA DSX and NVIDIA Vera Rubin, and develop a next-generation AI-defined vehicle platform using NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion.
Kwang Mo Koo, Chairman and CEO of LG Corp., said, "As our discussions have moved fast, our tasks and goals in AI Factory and Physical AI have become clear. We will accelerate the spread of AI by building industry-leading references."
"The defining opportunity of physical AI is to give every machine the ability to understand the real world, reason and act safely alongside people — reshaping everyday life from the home and factory floor to the road," said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. "Building on years of collaboration, LG and NVIDIA are combining LG's leadership in product engineering and manufacturing with NVIDIA technology to accelerate the next era of robots, "
