Signal Report forecasts half of the top 10 AI vendors selling physical AI products by 2028
Summary
Gartner predicts that by 2028 half of the ten biggest AI suppliers will offer physical AI products. This is a supply-side forecast that tracks what vendors sell rather than what organisations adopt. Physical AI, in Gartner's definition, covers robots, drones, cars and smart devices that link AI models with sensors and actuators to sense, decide and act. The trend is driven by demand to extend the productivity of digital AI into physical environments. Gartner does not name the vendors or explain how the forecast was produced.
