Nvidia readies Jetson Thor computers for humanoid robots in 2025

Nvidia is set to bring its new technology for powering humanoid robots to market in the first half of 2025, aiming to stake its claim in the fast-growing robotics sector, a senior company executive said. First unveiled earlier this year, the Jetson Thor computers are part of Nvidia’s approach to developing humanlike robots, where advances in artificial intelligence have improved autonomy, enabling robots to interact better with humans and their surroundings. Nvidia is targeting a fragmented market of “hundreds of thousands" of robot makers, in contrast to the concentrated smartphone market dominated by a few major players, Deepu Talla, Nvidia’s vice president of robotics and edge computing, told reporters Wednesday on the sidelines of an Nvidia conference in Tokyo. Nvidia’s Talla said the company supplies Tesla with technology for building humanoid robots, characterizing the automaker’s push as “advancing the market."
