Physical AI Builders Night - 🤖 Robotics & Embodied AI
Physical AI Builders Night — South Bay
📍 San Jose / Santa Clara / Sunnyvale (South Bay)
🗓 Monthly Meetup (Every 3rd Thursday Evening))
🕡 5:30 PM – 8:00 PM
Powered by Seeed Studio
Building open-source AI hardware ecosystem for the next generation of Physical AI systems.
Co-host by Al Global Campus
🚀 Our First Event
This first meetup is all about Robotics & Embodied AI — where AI models meet actuators, sensors, and real-world physical systems.
From robotic arms to Reachy-mini, from ROS systems to vision-based manipulation — this is a space for people actually building Physical AI.
🤖 Theme: Robotics & Embodied AI Systems
This kickoff session focuses on:
🦾 Robotic manipulation & control
👁️ Vision-based robotics (VLM / perception systems)
🧠 Embodied AI & robot learning
🔁 Teleoperation & data collection
⚙️ Open source ecosystems & real-world deployment
If you are building anything that moves in the physical world — this is your community.
🧩 What to Expect
This is a builder-first, demo-driven, highly technical meetup.
You are welcome to bring your physical AI demos onsite to showcase or just come and check out what's out there.
🔹 Agenda
5:30–6:00 pm – Arrival, mingle, grab refreshments
6:00–6:10 pm – Welcome and introduction by Eric Pan, Founder & CEO at Seeed Studio
6:10-6:20 pm - Intro about AI Global Campus by Michelle Le Ma
6:20–7:00 pm – Guest talks
Chen Su: Head of Edge AI Product Marketing at NVIDIA
Dhruv Diddi: Founder of Solo Tech, a pioneering Physical AI Specialization platform bridging the gap between digital intelligence and real-world robotics.
Nick Velasquez: Founder of DeepSea Developments and Seeed Studio Ranger. Nick will share his hands-on experience developing with Reachy Mini — Hugging face's open-source humanoid — and what building with it revealed about human-robot interaction in the age of Physical AI.
7:00 - 8:00 pm – Demo + Mix & Mingle
🛠 Who Should Join
This event is for builders working on:
Robotics & ROS systems
Embodied AI & VLM/VLA models
Edge AI & multimodal perception
Audio/voice AI systems
Embedded systems & hardware prototyping
AI + physical world interaction systems
If you are building machines that interact with the real world — this is your community.
🔬 Why This Matters
The next generation of AI systems will not only see the world — they will also hear, sense, and act within it.
We believe the future of Physical AI depends on:
Vision + audio + sensor fusion
Real-time edge intelligence
Open hardware ecosystems
Builder-driven innovation
⚡ Important Notes
Limited capacity — RSVP required
Builders with demos will be prioritized
ReSpeaker-based projects strongly encouraged
This is a technical community event, not a product pitch
