Software firm Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) is teaming up with chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA) in order to develop artificial intelligence for robotics. The partnership brings together Cadence’s expertise in chip design software with Nvidia’s AI capabilities, with both CEOs highlighting the goal of speeding up how robots are trained.

These physics engines simulate how real-world materials and objects behave, which helps create realistic training environments. When paired with Nvidia’s AI, robots can learn in computer simulations rather than only in the real world. As a result, robots can be trained faster and in a more controlled way, while still learning how to handle real-life situations.
Interestingly, this isn’t the only way Nvidia is working on improving robotics. In fact, earlier this year, it released an open-source, AI-focused platform called Alpamayo that’s designed to support Level 4 autonomous vehicle development. Similar to the Cadence partnership, it combines simulated and real-world AI datasets to improve how autonomous vehicles handle safety and navigation, especially in complex or less common driving situations.
