Robotics is entering a new phase, driven by advances in AI and the growing momentum around physical AI and humanoid platforms. Market analysts forecast strong long‑term growth in humanoid robotics, with sensing emerging as one of the fastest‑growing hardware segments.
Building on the experience of more than 25 billion MEMS sensors shipped, STMicroelectronics offers one of the industry’s few complete MEMS portfolios spanning consumer, industrial, and automotive applications.
This webinar introduces the ST application tree for robotics and shows how the MEMS portfolio maps to the functional blocks of a humanoid robot, underpinning core capabilities such as locomotion, manipulation, positioning, autonomy, safety, and proprioception. It also highlights how ST is integrating sensors, motor control, and STM32 microcontrollers into the NVIDIA robotics ecosystem, with live insights into Holoscan Sensor Bridge demonstrations and Isaac Sim integration presented during the session.
