SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 27 (San Francisco News Online) — NVIDIA on June 22 introduced NVIDIA Halos for Robotics, a safety system for physical AI that the company said unifies AI compute, system software, sensor data, safety applications and inspection into a single architecture.

The company said the platform centers on NVIDIA IGX Thor and Holoscan Sensor Bridge for compute and sensor connectivity, NVIDIA Halos OS for safety software, and the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab for inspection and certification support.

NVIDIA said the inspection lab is the first ANAB-accredited program for functional and AI safety for physical AI. The company said it is designed to help partners prepare for third-party certification from bodies including TÜV Rheinland, UL Solutions, TÜV SÜD, exida, SGS and CertX.

NVIDIA also said Halos for Robotics draws on more than 18,600 engineering years of autonomous vehicle safety development. The release did not include pricing or a broad availability date.
