[Speaker] Daisuke Imaizumi, President and CEO of Infra Commons, Inc. [Key Lecture Content] The term "Physical AI" began to gain traction following the keynote speech by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2025) in Las Vegas in January 2025. In this seminar, we will explain the overall picture of "Physical AI that Japanese manufacturing can develop and sell," which has been clearly defined for the first time by the recently released robot edge computer Jetson Thor, based on the definition of Physical AI provided by the CEO of NVIDIA, a company that has become one of the world's leading firms by market capitalization. There are various specific applications, including autonomous robots, drones, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, and inspection and maintenance robots, suggesting that a new era is approaching for Japanese manufacturing. [Lecture Items] 1. Introduction: The Three Stages of AI Evolution 2. Technical Explanation: Translating Jensen Huang's Definition Technically 3. Tools Available for Development in Japanese Manufacturing: Jetson Thor and the NVIDIA Stack 4. Use Cases 5. Summary and Q&A
