Path Robotics
Physical AI platform for autonomous welding, anchored by the Obsidian foundation model trained on tens of millions of welded inches. The AW-3 cell handles large structural parts (up to 70 ft); the AF-1 autonomously picks, fits, and welds without human intervention. The Rove mobile system (announced April 2026) mounts Obsidian onto a quadruped for in-situ shipyard welding. Operates as a Robotics-as-a-Service with $0 CapEx for customers, charging for welding capacity. Claims 97%+ first-pass yield and 4x productivity vs. manual welding.
