Industrial Humanoids: AI for Flexible Automation – Why It Will Happen Faster Than You Think

Patrick Heimburger
Managing Director · fruitcore robotics GmbH
Day 1 · January 20, 2027 · 10:00–11:00

Industrial automation is on the verge of a paradigm shift: with Physical AI, robots are increasingly able to perceive their environment, understand situations, plan tasks and respond flexibly to changes.

This creates a new form of automation that is no longer dependent exclusively on highly structured processes. Humanoid robots could soon be deployed where classic automation reaches its limits due to changing products, processes or working environments.

fruitcore robotics is developing PLEXA One, an industrial humanoid for deployment in real production environments. This keynote shows from the perspective of an industrial company which technological prerequisites have already been created, which applications are becoming economically interesting, and why the industrial use of humanoids may become reality much faster than many expect.

The focus is not on science fiction scenarios, but on concrete questions of industrial practice:

  • Where do industrial humanoids already create economic value today?
  • Which tasks are suitable for humanoid automation – and which are not?
  • What role do Physical AI, AI-based planning and multimodal perception play?
  • How can humanoids be integrated into existing production environments?
  • And what needs to happen for technological demonstrators to become scalable industrial solutions?

A keynote about the transition from AI demos to productive automation – and why this change could come faster than expected.
