Google DeepMind said Apptronik’s Apollo 2 humanoids will collect real-world data for Gemini Robotics. Apptronik’s linked Robot Park page describes a nearly 90,000-square-foot Austin facility.

Physical AI is moving from demos toward deployment networks. Google DeepMind says 15 European startups will spend three months with access to its AI stack, Gemini Robotics models, and hands-on support.

Google DeepMind and Boston Dynamics are showing a clearer bridge between foundation models and robot APIs. The demo gives Spot tools for movement, photos and grasping, then lets Gemini Robotics plan from plain-English tasks.

Google DeepMind and Agile Robots said on March 24, 2026 that they will combine Gemini Robotics foundation models with Agile Robots hardware to build adaptable, reasoning robots for industrial environments. The partnership starts with high-value manufacturing and automation use cases where scale and reliability matter most.

Google DeepMind has opened applications for a Europe-focused robotics accelerator. The three-month program combines technical mentorship, product support, and potential cloud credits up to $350k for eligible startups.

Google DeepMind announced Gemini Robotics-ER 2 on January 8, 2026, highlighting improved data efficiency and real-world action performance. The update targets a core robotics bottleneck: reliable generalization from training to physical environments.
