2026 Nvidia GTC Night on Physical AI and Robotics
Dr. Albert Hu panel-spoke in a 2026 Nvidia GTC after hours event on Physical AI and Robotics. Based on his experience in hiring robotics engineer and integration of robots into semiconductor equipment, Dr. Hu emphasizes that safety, reliability, and total cost of ownership are key drivers of AI robotics adoption. He also advocated for smaller models that are faster to train, less compute, necessary for real-world deployment.
2025 Hosting UK Students in Silicon Valley
Last week [on July 22] we hosted the AI Robotics Education Program for the visiting UK cohort from an Oxbridge summer program. Students explored Agentic AI robots and mBot demos in hands-on sessions. They stayed engaged from start to finish. The feedback was strong. Seventy percent rated the experience 5 out of 5. The rest gave it 4 out of 5. This speaks to the quality of the program and the dedication of everyone involved. We thank Beckhoff Automation Silicon Valley for hosting and our team for delivering a high-quality experience that left a lasting impression.
2025 New York City Tech Week
Supertech FT (STFT) / Institute of Responsible AI Robotics (IRAIR) demonstrated Agentic AI robots on Thursday, June 5th for two sessions: morning fireside chat Learning Futures and evening mixer Not Your Father's AI. The evening mixer called "Not Your Father's AI" was an aptly named session for our demo. LLM, GenAI are old and tired. Overhyped. AI Robotics is an embodiment of Physical AI; multimodal beyond LLM. We were told by our host that an unusually large number of AI professionals, AI investors, influencers, and education officials were there. That number had ballooned to over 500.
Our work was inspired by NASA JPL Mars Rover Agentic AI open source. Thanks to NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory for its contribution to STEM and Physical AI education.
2025 Boys & Girls Club
Elvin Li and Calvin Quach visited the Boys & Girls Club at Boeddeker Park on May 1st giving a talk on how robots are becoming increasingly part of our daily lives, the career paths in AI Robotics, and showcasing AI robots. The kids of the club were energetic throughout the event and enthusiastic to learn the basics of AI Robotics getting to observe how AI robots can be programmed to follow a line track and avoid bumping into obstacles without any supervision. Special thanks to Michael Vuong, the Clubhouse Director, and Code Tenderloin for organizing this event!
2024 Joy to the City
To finish off this year's multitude of successful AI Robotics events, we were invited to attend Joy to the City at the Chase Center on December 7th! SuperTech FT was honored to hold a booth teaching and showcasing AI Robotics to the 7000+ attendees throughout this four hour event. At our booth, Elvin Li and his team introduced both parents and kids alike to their first AI Robot and a node-tossing robot built by Lowell High School's First Inspire CardinalBotics 4159.
We hope to continue teaching, inspiring, and enabling AI Robotics. See you next year with more to come!
