Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. has introduced a comprehensive robotics architecture at CES 2026, designed to accelerate Physical AI from household robots to full-size humanoids. The new platform integrates hardware, software and AI into a scalable, safety-grade system built for real-world deployment across retail, logistics and manufacturing.

Central to the announcement is the Qualcomm Dragonwing™ IQ10 Series, the company’s latest premium-tier robotics processor for advanced autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and humanoids. The processor delivers high-performance, energy-efficient “brain of the robot” capabilities, enabling machines to reason, adapt and operate reliably at scale.

Built on Qualcomm’s leadership in edge AI and low-power computing, the general-purpose robotics architecture supports advanced perception, motion planning and human-robot interaction through end-to-end AI models. It is designed to scale across multiple form factors while maintaining industrial-grade reliability.

Qualcomm also announced a collaboration with Figure, as the humanoid robotics company works with Qualcomm Technologies to define next-generation compute architectures for future humanoid platforms. In parallel, Qualcomm is expanding its robotics ecosystem, working with partners including Figure.ai, Advantech, Booster, Robotec.ai and VinMotion to deliver deployment-ready solutions.

At CES, Qualcomm is showcasing humanoid robots powered by its Dragonwing platforms, including VinMotion’s Motion 2 and Booster’s K1 Geek, alongside robotics development kits and AI data flywheel tools that support continuous learning and skill development.

With this full-stack approach, Qualcomm aims to move intelligent robots beyond the lab and into real-world environments, setting a new foundation for scalable, autonomous robotics powered by Physical AI.
