/ About this event
PrismaX and Moonlake are bringing an exclusive, curated edition of RoboCon during a16z Tech Week. Join us to hear from three star speakers and connect with the brightest minds in tech through our open networking session. Expect live robot demos, short panels, and food from star chefs.
Robot learning had a breakthrough year. Models now generalize across tasks in ways that looked out of reach two years ago. Getting those models onto real machines, in real buildings, doing real work is a different problem. It takes data from the physical world, simulation that holds up outside the benchmark, and a model that actually runs on the robot you own.
Topics we will be discussing: - What actually breaks in the first week a robot leaves a controlled environment - How far simulation carries you, and where it stops - Why the best model is often the one that fits on your robot, not the one at the top of the leaderboard - What good means to the people deploying robots for a living
Space is limited and approval is required. RoboCon is a highly curated event to inspire meaningful discussions.
Who should be in the room? Founders, researchers, engineers and investors working on robot foundation models, teleoperation, world models, simulation, real-world data, hardware and deployment.
