Robotics is a rapidly growing and changing industry. Each week we put together a collection of stories to help keep you up to date. Unfortunately, we can't cover everything each week, but we try to provide updates that we think are relevant to your career in robotics.
Machina Labs, who uses robotics and AI to build the next generation of factories, has raised $32 million in Series B. This investment round is led by Innovation Endeavors and NVentures, NVIDIA's venture capital arm. With this new investment, and the backing of a dominant supplier of AI enabling technologies, Machinal Labs is poised for success.
Vayu Robotics has raised $12.7 million in their first round of seed financing led by Khosla Ventures, with participation from Lockheed Martin Ventures. Full-scale delivery robot as-a-service, with their Vayu One robot, appear to be Vayu Robotics focus. However, they also offer solutions for mobility and perception with their Vayu Drive and Vayu Sense solutions.
