Robots take on a multitude of forms, each with technologies that make them best suited to their own specific environments, either working independently or in the company of humans. This article covers cobots, service robots, humanoids, drones, and in-vehicle AI assistants.

The transition to 800V in electric vehicles has accelerated the commercialization of wide bandgap semiconductors, and has led to increased vehicle range, faster charging, and greater e-powertrain efficiency. AI data centers are being pushed to ever-increasing power ratings to support future generations of AI training and inference. Drawing inspiration directly from EV power electronics, the data center industry is working to develop the HVDC (800VDC) data center, enabled by wide bandgap power electronics innovations.
