Physical AI is moving into the real world as we always imagined. Machines can now handle objects with real dexterity, feel what they touch, coordinate their whole body, and adapt on the fly. The question is how far we can push it. Not just better robots, but any system that can perceive, reason, and act reliably in the physical world. What you’re building for Perception Spatial intelligence + world models Movement + dexterity Autonomy Human-machine interaction What to Expect 🧠 Support from Google DeepMind + partners 🛠️ Tools for robotics, simulation, perception + embodied AI ⚡ Build, test + iterate 🎤 Final demos + judging
