Nvidia executive Madison Huang visited LG Electronics' robotics hub in South Korea on Tuesday. The purpose of the visit was to discuss expanding the partnership between the two companies in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure and robotics. Huang met with senior LG Electronics officials to explore potential collaborations.
This visit followed LG Electronics' announcement last week of plans to unveil a next-generation humanoid robot with bipedal walking capabilities in Q1 2027. The robot will be based on Nvidia's robotics platform. The Korean tech giant had signed a memorandum of understanding with Nvidia at the chipmaker's headquarters in Santa Clara, California, with LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang present.
During Tuesday's visit, Huang and her team reviewed the operation of LG Electronics' robotics factory in Seoul. The factory, currently under construction, aims to become fully operational by the end of the year. LG Electronics currently uses its own proprietary humanoid robot, LG CLOiD, at the facility to generate, collect, and process data for AI training.
