It will combine its machines, operational data, and engineering capabilities with the Artificial Intelligence models for robotics developed by FieldAI. The first applications include autonomous inspections and digital twins. Caterpillar partnered with the US company FieldAI to develop new Artificial Intelligence (AI), autonomy, and robotics applications for construction sites and other industrial environments. The alliance will combine Caterpillar's operational data and engineering capabilities with the foundational robotics models developed by FieldAI. The goal is to use so-called Physical AI so that machines and robotic systems can better understand their environment and operate with higher levels of autonomy in complex industrial conditions. FieldAI has raised U$S 405 million to drive the development of its AI and robotics technologies. Autonomous inspections and digital twins will be among the first applications of the alliance. AI, autonomy, and robotics will be the three major technological areas on which Caterpillar and FieldAI will work. The cooperation will begin with applications aimed at improving the knowledge and management of the...
