NVIDIA announced NVIDIA Halos for Robotics, a full-stack safety system for physical AI and robots. The system spans hardware, software, and sensor layers, building on the Halos architecture previously used for autonomous vehicles. Agility is the first adopter, integrating safety features into humanoid robots deployed at Amazon, GXO, Schaeffler, and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada.
NVIDIA announced NVIDIA Halos for Robotics on Tuesday, calling it the industry's first full-stack safety system for physical AI and robotics. The system draws on the Halos architecture NVIDIA introduced in 2025 for autonomous vehicles, adapting it for robots that operate in factories, warehouses, and logistics centers. The stack includes the NVIDIA IGX Thor computing platform, the Holoscan Sensor Bridge for sensor connectivity, and the Halos OS software layer, which handles safety-related motion control through the Halos Outside-In Safety Blueprint.
Deepu Talla, NVIDIA's vice president of robotics and edge AI, said the unified safety architecture lets developers and system integrators build safer robots and deploy them alongside human workers. Agility, the first company to adopt the system, is incorporating Halos safety features into its humanoid robots. Agility CEO Peggy Johnson said the partnership strengthens the company's approach to responsible automation and supports human-robot teamwork in manufacturing and logistics.
