[Photo: Nvidia]<\/p>\n<p>LG will equip its humanoid robot development with Nvidia\u2019s artificial intelligence technology. LG and Nvidia said on Aug. 14 they will develop a next-generation bipedal humanoid robot using Isaac GR00T, an open humanoid-based model designed to move by judging situations like a person.<\/p>\n<p>The robot will be unveiled in the first quarter of next year. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding on Aug. 13 local time at Nvidia headquarters in Santa Clara, California. Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang (\uc820\uc2a8 \ud669) and LG head Koo Kwang-mo (\uad6c\uad11\ubaa8) attended the signing. Under the agreement, the companies plan to move their robotics, AI factory and mobility cooperation from the planning stage to execution.<\/p>\n<p>The humanoid will carry Nvidia\u2019s Jetson Thor, which processes computations directly on the robot body. Isaac GR00T and Halos for Robotics, a full-stack integrated safety system for robotics, will also be applied. LG will develop it under a \u201cOne LG\u201d approach that combines actuator, sensor and battery capabilities held by LG Electronics, LG Innotek and LG Energy Solution.<\/p>\n<p>The wheeled base robot LG CLOi will be deployed within this year on the washing machine production line at an LG Electronics plant in Tennessee in the United States. It is a procedure to verify performance in a real production environment. LG will reflect the demonstration results to improve the robot\u2019s performance and usability. It plans to expand the scope of deployment to global production facilities, homes and commercial spaces.<\/p>\n<p>\u25c6Building an 80 MW AI factory in Cheonan in the first half of 2028<\/p>\n<p>The cooperation also includes building a robot data factory based on LG CNS\u2019s robot data platform PhysicalWorks. PhysicalWorks will be developed to continuously collect data needed for robot training in the field and to support synthetic data generation, training and verification. The two companies will also run a joint task force to handle research and development, on-site demonstrations and commercialisation together.<\/p>\n<p>Robot data accumulated there and manufacturing-site demonstration experience will be used to strengthen the competitiveness of LG\u2019s robot foundation model (RFM) under in-house development. LG will enhance its in-house AI model capabilities while using Isaac GR00T to raise its robotics technology competitiveness. AI factory cooperation will start with building a reference site in the first half of 2027 based on Nvidia\u2019s Vera Rubin.<\/p>\n<p>Based on these results, LG will build an 80 MW AI factory in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province, by the first half of 2028. The facility will be used for physical AI, particularly to advance robot foundation models. LG will combine its thermal management, power, design and operations capabilities with Nvidia\u2019s DSX architecture to verify an end-to-end solution. It then aims to supply a turnkey \u201cOne LG\u201d package solution to global big tech customers.<\/p>\n<p>In mobility, the companies will develop a next-generation, AI-defined, in-vehicle high-performance computing platform based on Nvidia Drive Hyperion. LG\u2019s in-vehicle infotainment and automotive software capabilities will be integrated into it. LG plans to provide global automakers with a solution that bundles autonomous driving functions and in-car AI services.<\/p>\n<p>Koo said, \u201cAs our cooperation gains speed, our shared goals in AI factories and physical AI have become clear. We will accelerate AI adoption by building an industry-leading reference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Huang said, \u201cBuilding on years of collaboration, LG and Nvidia are combining LG\u2019s leadership in product engineering and manufacturing with Nvidia technology to bring forward a new era of robots, AI factories and autonomous vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(From left) Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo.
