Autonomous robot specialist COAST Autonomous is partnering TorqueAGI, a Generative AI startup based in Palo Alto, CA. The two companies aim to enhance robotic intelligence for complex tasks in industrial and military applications.

COAST provides mobility solutions for people and goods in industrial environments. The company has developed a proprietary 6-level Autonomous Robotics system, which is deployed across many sites, such as rail yards, airports, and ports. The system is designed for dangerous and hazardous environments.

TorqueAGI contributes its Generative AI technology, which complements COAST’s existing systems. By combining COAST’s expertise in robotic systems with TorqueAGI’s Generative AI technology, both companies aim to make advancements in the field of industrial robotics.

Pierre Lefevre, CTO of COAST, said: “Our work with TorqueAGI enhances how our robots operate in dynamic industrial settings. This collaboration opens up new opportunities for COAST and TorqueAGI in the robotics industry by equipping them with an unparalleled level of intelligence.”

Dr Ashutosh Saxena, a Microsoft Faculty Fellow and Chief AI Advisor at TorqueAGI, said: “We’re excited to partner with COAST Autonomous, a leader in robotics. Together, we’re creating robots that are now better equipped to operate in complex environments with enhanced efficiency and intelligence.”
