Accelerating Physical AI: Embodied Intelligence for the Next Frontier of AI-Powered Robotics

Pays physical-AI robotics teams a fixed EUR 300,000 lump-sum grant to validate a prototype and then build it into a real-world-tested system.

The project itself runs in two stages: Stage 1 refines and validates a TRL 4+ prototype in a relevant environment, builds a performance-assessment methodology, and secures end-user commitment; Stage 2 (contingent on Stage 1 milestones and a full follow-on proposal) builds and tests an integrated, autonomous solution up to TRL 6-7, addressing scalability, certification and a commercialisation roadm
