Skild AI, a pioneer in building generalized robot intelligence for any embodiment, has acquired Zebra’s Robotics Automation business. 

The transaction enables Zebra Technologies to further sharpen its strategic focus on accelerating workflows across the supply chain and prioritizing investments in high-growth areas such as RFID, machine vision, and AI for the frontline.

In addition to receiving cash consideration, Zebra has also received an equity stake in Skild AI.

With this acquisition, Skild AI aims to accelerate the deployment of robotics automation solutions alongside its general-purpose Skild Brain. 

A key component of this strategy is to build upon the proven ability of Zebra’s Symmetry Fulfillment orchestration platform to coordinate tasks between robots and frontline workers using Zebra wearable devices.

Skild AI is a fast-growing startup in the physical AI space, disrupting the automation industry with its Skild Brain. 

Unlike traditional models that are tailored to specific robot designs, the Skild Brain is omni-bodied and can control any robot without prior knowledge of its exact body form.
