Physical AI Takes the Wheel: How the World’s Robotaxi Leaders Are Building With NVIDIA Technologies

NVIDIA details a three-computer robotaxi platform that Uber, Lyft, May Mobility, Mercedes-Benz and others are adopting to scale autonomous fleets.

NVIDIA says every major commercial robotaxi program runs on its stack, spanning training (DGX with Alpamayo VLA models), simulation and validation (Omniverse, Cosmos, AlpaSim on RTX PRO), and in-vehicle compute (DRIVE Hyperion 10 with dual DRIVE AGX Thor chips). Adding meta-action and chain-of-thought reasoning data to a VLA model reduced minimum average displacement error by 43%, from 2.08 to 1.18. Uber plans NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion-based fleets across 28 cities by 2028, partnering with Autobrains, Avride, Lucid, May Mobility, Mercedes-Benz, Momenta, Nissan, Nuro, Pony.ai, Stellantis, Waabi, Wayve, WeRide and Zoox. DRIVE Hyperion 10 combines 14 cameras, nine radars, three lidars and 12 ultrasonics with redundant compute and NVIDIA Halos safety validation.

Agility Robotics says its new Digit 5 robot can work next to people without safety fences

Agility Robotics unveiled Digit 5, a humanoid warehouse robot that can work safely alongside people without fences, with deliveries from early 2027.

Agility Robotics announced Digit 5, a humanoid robot for warehouses and factories that uses AI and sensors to detect people and stop or step aside without safety fences. It lifts up to 22.7 kg (40% more than Digit 4), charges in 9 minutes for 90 minutes of runtime, and is the first partner for Nvidia's Halos robotics safety platform. Agility cites over $300 million in orders, with first deliveries in early 2027 and production capacity of up to 10,000 units per year in Salem, Oregon.
