ABB

ABB is a global industrial automation and robotics company that designs and manufactures robotic systems for manufacturing, industrial, and increasingly, emerging automation applications. The company has developed particular expertise in robot manipulation and dexterity—critical capabilities where robots have historically struggled with fine-motor tasks that humans perform intuitively. Recent industry developments, including ABB's collaborations with companies like PSYONIC on training robotic hands using human grip data, represent a strategic push to advance machine dexterity through human-centered approaches. These efforts reflect a broader industry focus on physical AI systems—machines capable of executing complex, precise physical tasks. ABB's active participation in this emerging space positions it as a key player in the convergence of artificial intelligence and robotics.
