The conference drew over 7000 innovators in AI, robotics, healthcare, manufacturing and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>At Nexelem, we\u2019re developing our system in close collaboration with the manufacturing industry, while also looking beyond the horizon, so that our approach helps set the direction, not just follow it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over two days at Marina Bay Sands, the program featured three stages, hackathons, and startup contests, with a heavy focus on automation and real-world AI. A quick survey the organizers shared had already flagged \u201cEmbodied AI (e.g. robotics, advanced manufacturing)\u201d as one of the top trends poised to make an impact. It felt spot-on: sessions like \u201cRobotics Renaissance: AI\u2019s Role in Automating the Physical World\u201d underscored that Industry 4.0 is front and center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Table of contents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#Whats-the-sign-of-an-AI-revolution-in-the-Industry-4-concept\">What\u2019s the sign of an AI revolution in the Industry 4.0 concept?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#AI-in-the-physical-world\">AI in the physical world<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#The-physical-world-accessible-to-AI\">The physical world accessible to AI<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Smart-Factory-and-Security-in-the-Era-of-AI\">Smart Factory and Security in the Era of AI<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Last-but-not-least\">Last but not least<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Whats-the-sign-of-an-AI-revolution-in-the-Industry-4-concept\">What\u2019s the sign of an AI revolution in the Industry 4.0 concept?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are there any? What about smart factories? Are they smarter with AI implementation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 So many questions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, <a href=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/blog\/industry-4-0\/\">Industry 4.0<\/a> means a smart, connected manufacturing environment powered by data. It\u2019s about linking machines, sensors, and data so factories can make decisions independently (of course, at some level of autonomy) in real time. In essence, smart factories turn data into useful information to let humans make better business decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walking the expo halls, I saw many demos of interesting tech. Also, some keynotes caught my attention. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/personainc.ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Persona AI<\/a> showed off its vision of robots as industrial workers. I sat on a \u201cPhysical AI\u201d panel where Persona\u2019s CEO Nicolaus Radford and others explained that humanoid machines will first be specialized tools, not general-purpose bots.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"719\" src=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids-1024x719.webp\" alt=\"Persona's humanoid robot-workers at SuperAI 2025\" class=\"wp-image-1068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids-1024x719.webp 1024w, https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids-300x211.webp 300w, https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids-768x539.webp 768w, https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids-1536x1078.webp 1536w, https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/Personas_factory_humanoids.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>In practice, Persona lets customers \u201cpick your persona\u201d for each robot. They literally offer robots configured as Builder, Welder, Fabricator, Assembler, and even Miner \u2013 each one a humanoid tuned to a different skilled trade. For instance, the Builder persona \u201cexecutes construction and structural assembly tasks safely\u201d, while the Welder persona \u201cdelivers welding in hazardous environments\u201d. Persona\u2019s roles include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Builder: Executes construction and assembly tasks safely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Welder: Performs welding in changing or hazardous conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fabricator: Cuts, shapes, and finishes metalwork under tough conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assembler: Performs assembly tasks in hard conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These examples showed me that, in a modern factory, we\u2019re moving toward fleets of task-focused robots. Radford emphasized that early humanoid robots won\u2019t try to do everything \u2013 instead, they\u2019ll be \u201csegmented into different Personas\u201d for welding, assembling, etc. In fact, Persona AI already inked a deal with Korea\u2019s HD Hyundai to deploy humanoid welding robots in shipyards. This confirmed my own view: soon we\u2019ll see specialized robot welders, builders, and fabricators working side-by-side with humans. These robots extend Industry 4.0 by offloading dangerous or tedious labor, much as I understand future humanoid workers who use a working environment and tools designed by humans for humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Physical AI: The New Age of Intelligent Robotics &#8211; SuperAI Singapore 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"youtube-responsive\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Physical AI: The New Age of Intelligent Robotics - SuperAI Singapore 2025\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l_-PMQ48FPM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@superai_conf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">SuperAI\u2019s YT Channel&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"AI-in-the-physical-world\"><strong>AI in the physical world<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another big theme was spatial computing \u2013 essentially letting AI perceive and navigate the physical world. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aukilabs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Auki Labs<\/a> stole the show with demos of \u201cPhysical AI\u201d on the exhibit floor. Their booth showcased augmented reality and mapping tech that blur the line between digital intelligence and shop floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As one poster put it, they envision \u201cAI entering the physical world enabled by spatial computing\u201d. For example, Auki demonstrated Gotu, an app-free indoor navigation system. With AR glasses or phones, Gotu let me see waypoints in the hall and guide me to booths without any installed antennas or other RF equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 Imagine a worker wearing smart glasses in a warehouse, following AR arrows to the correct rack or machine \u2013 a clear Industry 4.0 use case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Auki also showed Cactus, a spatial AI platform for retail, which in factories could translate to real-time analytics of machine positions and inventory layout. These demos brought home how factories will soon have \u201cdigital twins\u201d and shared maps enabling robots and humans to coordinate in real space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On stage, Auki\u2019s CEO, Nils Pihl, took these ideas even further. In his keynote titled \u201c<em>DePIN: The<\/em> <em>Decentralized Nervous System of Physical AI<\/em>\u201d he argued that \u201cthe next x10 leap in global productivity will come from AI agents operating in physical space\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, Nils predicts factories will only see huge gains if our machines share spatial data in real time. He made the analogy that old tools like GPS won\u2019t cut it; instead, we need a new infrastructure. Indeed, Auki describes their network as a \u201cposemesh\u201d \u2013 \u201can external and collaborative sense of space that machines and AI can use to understand the physical world\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"The-physical-world-accessible-to-AI\">The physical world accessible to AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To me, that means the factory of the future is like a connected 3D web: robots, drones, and sensors all post and read maps of the factory floor. This allows things like multi-robot coordination and live AR overlays for maintenance. As Nils quipped after his talk, \u201cthe convergence of AI and spatial computing is not just inevitable, it\u2019s already happening\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And he\u2019s right! Many manufacturing plants&nbsp;are already putting this into practice by using Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS) like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sewio.net\/?utm_source=virtuslab&amp;utm_medium=guest_link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Sewio<\/a>. RTLS enables creating a live digital copy of the shop floor that mirrors what\u2019s happening in real time. The location data doesn\u2019t just sit in dashboards; it feeds other systems, machines, and even robots. This allows them to react instantly to actual conditions and run simulations that help plan changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, during <span style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px\">a time when many factories struggle with\u00a0production scheduling\u00a0and efficient\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/blog\/mrp-system-material-requirements-planning-software-for-manufacturing-company\/\" target=\"_blank\">material requirements planning<\/a> without proper <a href=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/aps-advanced-planning-and-scheduling-software\/\">APS software<\/a>, all these may sound like exaggerations. They certainly may be. However, if we want to have better, more efficient smart factories of the future, we have to think big, provide humans with better tools, and enable more time for<\/span> self-development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nils Pihl &#8211; DePIN: The Decentralized Nervous System of Physical AI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"youtube-responsive\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Nils Pihl - DePIN: The Decentralized Nervous System of Physical AI - SuperAI Singapore 2025\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RZAyg2bilWw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@superai_conf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">SuperAI\u2019s YT Channel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Smart-Factory-and-Security-in-the-Era-of-AI\"><strong>Smart Factory and Security in the Era of AI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond robotics, the conference reminded me of another Industry 4.0 challenge: security. Modern factories run on networks and devices, making them targets. I saw panels on AI-driven cyber defense and heard warnings about vulnerabilities. The stats are scary: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foley.com\/insights\/publications\/2024\/09\/cybersecurity-industry-4-part-1\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">a recent analysis<\/a> found that \u201cin 2023, the manufacturing sector experienced the highest share of cyberattacks among leading industries\u201d \u2013 up 42% from the prior year. 65% of factories got hit by ransomware, and IoT malware has spiked by over 400%. In plain terms, as we connect more machines and use AI to manage them, hackers have new ways to get in. Worse, cybercriminals are fighting fire with fire: they\u2019re now using <a href=\"https:\/\/nexelem.com\/en\/blog\/generative-ai-what-it-is-and-how-it-can-transform-smart-factories\/\">generative AI<\/a> to write novel malware and probe for weak spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means my friends, factory workers, need AI to help defend the plant as much as it helps run it. Securing networks, encrypting sensor data, and training staff all become urgent priorities alongside adding robots. The reality is that Industry 4.0 doesn\u2019t just bring efficiency; it brings new risks that manufacturers must handle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Join me and watch the entire debate called<\/strong> <strong>Cybersecurity Redefined: Digital Defense in the Age of AI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"youtube-responsive\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cybersecurity Redefined: Digital Defense in the Age of AI - SuperAI Singapore 2025\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bfgkX4CVEBc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@superai_conf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">SuperAI\u2019s YT Channel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, I feel optimistic. SuperAI 2025 showed concrete glimpses of tomorrow\u2019s smart factory. We saw that humanoid robots will arrive in factories in specialized roles, backed by modular platforms. We saw that spatial computing and AR are poised to weave AI into every machine, letting robots and humans share a common view of the workspace. We also saw that the industry is acutely aware of cybersecurity; the factories of the future will have to guard themselves against AI-powered hackers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Last-but-not-least\">Last but not least<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad2f72ca wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p>Industry 4.0 is here, and the new industrial revolution is approaching.
