Qualcomm announces acquisition of PickNik, will continue maintaining open-source MoveIt framework

Qualcomm Technologies has agreed to acquire robotics software company PickNik, which has long maintained the open-source manipulation framework MoveIt. Qualcomm said MoveIt will retain its existing open-source license, community roadmap, and support for third-party hardware, and it plans to integrate MoveIt and the commercial MoveIt Pro more closely with the Dragonwing robotics platform and Arduino VENTUNO Q boards, connecting vision-language-action models with motion planning, manipulation, and real-time control.
