Quarry sites are unpredictable. For many autonomous systems, changing terrain and shifting cycles lead to downtime. SDS for Construction is built differently. We treat every cycle as a feedback loop. Instead of failing when conditions change or GPS connectivity is lost, our system uses that data to adapt. The result? A fleet that becomes more efficient and intelligent every time it moves. Learn how we’re solving the unpredictability of haulage: appliedintuition.com/blog/applied-i…

Physical #AI leader @AppliedInt has announced a collaboration with @hd_materials, one of the world’s largest integrated manufacturers of building materials, to deploy #autonomoushaulage systems for its #quarry ops starting in Clarence Sands, Australia shorturl.at/dutym

In collaboration with Heidelberg Materials, we’re deploying autonomous haulage systems for their quarry operations, starting in Clarence Sands, Australia. Running directly on the vehicle, our system: ✅ Embeds perception, decision-making, and safety onboard ✅ Enables reliable operation without heavy site infrastructure ✅ Operates without constant connectivity SDS for Construction is making fleets smarter with every production cycle.

Not only cars, but also mining and agricultural machinery may be autonomous in the future. Applied Intuition CEO Qasar Younis spoke in Tokyo on Monday about how his firm is making self-driving software that can be put to multiple uses. japannews.yomiuri.co.jp/business/econo…

Catch our co-founders on the latest episode of @latentspacepod. They covered everything from AI hiring trends, how our OS is scaling the deployment of physical AI across industries like automotive, defense, and mining. 🎧 Full episode here: youtube.com/watch?v=rv23_K…

4月27日、SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026のセッション「自動運転の主戦場は“ソフトウエア”へ　～クルマを動かす頭脳の競争～」が開催されました。 読売新聞の越前谷知子氏による進行の下、いすゞの自動運転開発責任者の佐藤浩至が登壇。日産自動車の杉本一馬氏、Applied IntuitionのQasar Younis氏と共にディスカッションを行いました。 トラック業界はドライバー不足と運行効率という大きな社会課題に直面しており、レベル4自動運転は物流という社会インフラを維持するための重要な手段です。 ただし、トラックやバスなどの商用車の自動運転化は車両単独で完結するものではないため、物流・人流のシステム全体でインフラ、データ、運用を設計していく必要があります。 実際、いすゞは早くからテレマティクスに取り組んでおり、商用車情報基盤GATEXを通した車両のデータ連携により、様々なサービスを提供してきました。 このようなデータ連携が、AIやソフトウェアの進展により、単なる「管理」から「学習・最適化・継続的改善」へと進化します。 その結果、輸送効率のさらなる向上と、物流システム全体の最適化が実現できると考えています。 こうした広い目でシステム構築やルール整備を進め、自動運転の社会実装を加速するためには産学連携が不可欠です。 実際、いすゞは自動運転開発のために様々なパートナーとの協業を進めていますが、OEM、物流事業者、インフラ企業、ソフトウェア企業が一体となる必要があります。 登壇後は、佐藤とQasar氏が握手をし挨拶を交わしました。 いすゞとApplied Intuitionは大型トラックの自動運転開発を共同で行っており、二人はそれぞれの立場から自動運転の事業化を強力に推進しています。

Applied Intuition and @WeAreHII are partnering to define the future of naval power with Warship OS™. Today at @SeaAirSpace 2026, we will sign a strategic MOU with HII to advance AI-defined capabilities for unmanned and manned vessels. With Applied Intuition’s Warship OS™, our AI-defined operating system, we’re integrating data and intelligence from bow to stern. Our partnership is accelerating the shift toward more interoperable, adaptable, and autonomous naval platforms. Read more 👉 appliedintuition.com/press-releases…

Fleet logs can upload clean and still hide gaps, empty windows, or missing topics—then resim jobs fail late and pull teams into the wrong layer of debugging. We put quality metrics at ingestion and monitoring on the path to simulation, so unusable segments get filtered before compute, checks stay configurable as requirements evolve, and fixes land on platform time instead of across a fragmented toolchain. appliedintuition.com/engineering-bl…

Wheels up. Mission on. ✈️ Our Acuity Air Combat Autonomy software was embedded directly within @northropgrumman's Prism Mission Autonomy Software on their Talon IQ autonomous testbed – executing mission-representative behaviors into flight commands in real time before seamlessly transferring control mid-flight. A major step in advancing scalable, interoperable autonomy for next generation air combat. Read more 👉 appliedintuition.com/press-releases…

Applied Intuition CEO Qasar Younis says building physical AI requires "radical pragmatism": "If there are verticals that we think we should be more vertical in, we'll do that." "I think it's a false tradeoff to say what we do in trucking is what we're going to do in construction, what we do in agriculture is what we're going to do in mining." "What we're really trying to do is bring intelligence out into the real world." @qasar on @tbpn

“Unlike an AI agent that lives entirely online, Applied Intuition is adding its software to existing machinery that has to navigate the real world.” @Katherineli_ @BusinessInsider businessinsider.com/applied-intuit…

As vehicles become more software-defined, autonomy platforms can’t be static. They must evolve continuously over the lifetime of the vehicle, adapt to new hardware, sensors, regulations, and AI capabilities. Hardware-agnostic architecture makes this possible, enabling OEMs to move faster from development to production and scale autonomy across millions of vehicles, not just small fleets.
