Every robot, drone, self-driving car, delivery bot, and surgical assistant that claims “intelligence” is fundamentally a product of visual and/or electromagnetic perception systems. The success of Physical AI doesn’t start with neural networks or GPUs – it starts with cameras, sensors, and spectral scanners that give machines their first sense of reality.
Physical AI will not succeed until machines can truly see.
Automation is revolutionizing legacy industries from healthcare and precision medicine to manufacturing and construction, to agriculture and sustainability. The adoption of visual technology innovations will continue to remain the crux of automation for the next decade and beyond.
The next guest in our Women Leading Visual Tech Series is Carol Reiley, a serial entrepreneur and a computer scientist with the nickname “Mother of Robots”. LDV Capital’s Abigail Hunter-Syed spoke with Carol about current trends in robotics and AI. They touched on autonomous cars, healthcare, the food industry, and arts – all subject to being drastically transformed by advances in deep learning.
