NEXCOM shows RoboWIZ robotics ecosystem at Berlin event

NEXCOM's RoboWIZ push comes after the platform's initial introduction at Automation Taipei in August 2026, where it demonstrated humanoid, quadruped and dual-arm robotic applications developed with technology partners. The Berlin showcase during Nvidia GTC on October 21–22 marked a further step in the platform's development, emphasizing an international partner ecosystem and the integration of additional robotics technologies.

The platform spans five areas of robot development: AI core control, functional safety and cybersecurity, visual perception, real-time control, and actuation and robot systems. Its AI computing layer supports technologies from Nvidia, Intel and Qualcomm, while other elements include cameras, sensors, servo drives, joints, grippers, dexterous hands and robotics software. This modularity reflects a broader challenge in robotics: building an intelligent robot requires integrating perception systems, communication networks, motor drives, actuators, safety functions and real-time control software, frequently from different suppliers.

Functional safety emerges as a central theme in the partner lineup. Reynolds & Moore CTO Paul Schmitt said there is no one-size-fits-all safety architecture for robotics, arguing the right approach depends on the robot, its intended use, operating environment, hazards and required risk reduction. He cited NexCOBOT's MARS400 T20 as an early adopter of IGX Thor, combining AI, motion control and functional safety into one platform with T5000 specs and 8 GMSL camera inputs. The inclusion of safety engineering within the RoboWIZ ecosystem suggests NEXCOM is positioning safety as a design-stage consideration rather than an add-on feature.
