German robotics startup Neura Robotics has announced a partnership with semiconductor giant Qualcomm to develop the next generation of robots and physical AI. This collaboration aims to enhance the integration of humanoid and general-purpose robots in various real-world scenarios, from household to industrial environments.
Neura Robotics plans to leverage Qualcomm’s Dragonwing Robotics IQ10 processors as reference designs in their robots. The IQ10 series, unveiled at CES earlier this year, is tailored to support autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and humanoids, showcasing the latest advancements in processing power for robotic applications.
In addition, Neura Robotics will utilize its Neuraverse robotic simulation and training platform, introduced in June 2025, to fine-tune the performance of robots operating on the IQ10 processors.
David Reger, CEO of Neura Robotics, stated, ‘This collaboration represents a significant step towards realizing the potential of physical AI: an ecosystem that is open, scalable, and reliable. By combining our cognitive robotics platforms and the Neuraverse ecosystem with Qualcomm Technologies’ expertise in edge AI and connectivity, we are striving to accelerate a future where cognitive robots can safely coexist with humans across various industries and daily life.’
This partnership exemplifies a synergistic approach to advancing physical AI and reshaping the landscape of robotics technology.
