Key points

  • Intel GM Nagesh Puppala will present “From Models to Machines” on Oct 20, 2026 at RoboBusiness in Santa Clara.
  • Session will cover open, edge‑first architectures for perception, sensor fusion, motion planning, deterministic control, and real‑time AI.
  • Goal is to move physical AI from prototype to production across manufacturing, logistics, field robotics, humanoids, and autonomous systems.

The session will examine how open, edge‑first architectures can help teams integrate perception, sensor fusion, motion planning, deterministic control, and real‑time AI across diverse hardware and software stacks. Puppala will argue that moving physical AI from prototype to production requires a deployment foundation that prioritizes flexibility, interoperability, and measurable outcomes for manufacturing, logistics, field robotics, humanoids, and autonomous systems. He brings more than 25 years of experience, including leading Intel’s media platform business, and holds an MBA from NYU Stern, a master’s in computer science, and a bachelor’s in mechanical engineering.
