## Summary

Apptronik's Apollo humanoid robot has been combined with Google DeepMind's Gemini multimodal reasoning capabilities and is being tested on production lines at Mercedes-Benz, Jabil, and others for tasks such as moving packages, picking parts, and quality inspection. Apollo is about 1.73 meters tall with a 25 kg payload, equipped with 30 actuators and fused perception from stereo depth cameras and LiDAR, and uses swappable batteries for about four hours of runtime with a two-minute battery swap. Conroy emphasized that data collection and scaling compute are driving physical AI to cope with environmental changes, but general autonomy remains a longer-term goal.
