The location technology conference for Physical AI

The location technology conference for Physical AI

overview

As Physical AI moves from prototypes to deployment at scale, reliable localization has emerged as a foundational layer. Designs that worked in the lab break when exposed to real-world conditions.

Join leading robotics engineers in San Francisco to discuss the system design patterns they’ve used to successfully ship at scale. One day, one track, no product keynotes.

■ November 19, 2026

Doors open at 8am
Keynote at 9am
Drinks at 4pm
