Join us in San Francisco for the official kickoff to launch the technical working groups for the Intelligent Machine Guild - Robot Interoperability Framework on March 19th from 9:45 am - 11:45 am PST (online and virtual).
We will be organizing into specialized technical working groups to tackle the following domain challenges:
Human-Robot Interaction Models: Defining intuitive, multimodal interfaces for non-expert users and establishing human roles as supervisors and troubleshooters.
Robot Intent Sharing Mechanisms: Developing technical protocols for heterogeneous robots to communicate goals and plans to enable true collaboration.
Task and Environment Semantics: Creating a common, machine-readable language for describing tasks and operational environments.
Shared World Model Architecture: Exploring centralized and decentralized patterns for fleets to maintain a common operational picture.
This initiative is human-centric, aiming to create a framework for performant interaction that navigates commercial realities and existing standards like VDA 50/50 and ISO 22440/21423.
You will leave with a new perspective on how a uniform architecture can prevent vendor lock-in and enable the full potential of multi-robot systems. Admission is free, and you can reserve your spot to help shape this foundational effort for a more collaborative future in robotics.
About Intelligent Machine Guild - IMG
Historically, guilds maintained and elevated craft standards such as metal smithing, architecture, and shipbuilding. As robotics and AI mature from research to industrial craft, the industry needs an organization that sets quality standards, shares techniques, connects practitioners, ensures ethical practice, and represents the craft globally.
IMG embodies this philosophy for the 21st century's most transformative technologies.
Our mission is to advance intelligent machines from isolated innovations into trusted, interoperable systems through shared standards, collective learning, and global collaboration.
Partner: Uber AI Solutions
Uber AI Solutions is an enterprise-level technology division of Uber that transforms the company’s internal operational expertise into a "human intelligence layer" for global AI development. Drawing on over 10 years of experience managing large-scale data, the platform provides high-quality data annotation, custom dataset collection via a "Data Foundry," and rigorous product testing services to third-party enterprises. The division leverages Uber’s massive global infrastructure, which supports over 36 million daily rides and a workforce of 9 million+ earners across 75+ countries, to deliver data labeling with a reported 98%+ accuracy.
By making this internal infrastructure available to external clients, Uber AI Solutions assists industries ranging from autonomous vehicles and robotics to e-commerce in accelerating their time-to-market.
Partner: 3Laws Robotics
3Laws has been developing and implementing collision avoidance and dynamic safety technology for industry leaders such as Ford, Dow Chemical, US Air Force, and Raytheon for over 10 years now. They have deployed certifiable safety solutions on AMRs, AGVs, manipulators, automobiles, and aircraft. Their unique expertise in cyber-physical system modeling and deep understanding of the mathematics of nonlinear system control make our trustworthy dynamic collision avoidance systems possible. This body of knowledge and experience acquired over the years enables the development of collision avoidance systems that are non-intrusive in the nominal operation of the vehicle and yet detect and intelligently intervene when the vehicle is about to leave its safe operating region.
