David Lin / Staff Writer, Robotics

David is covering robotics software stacks, systems integration, and fleet operations. Coming from a background in software engineering and systems integration for industrial customers, he brings a practical lens to deployment. David’s articles dig into middleware, orchestration frameworks, simulation, and observability tools that make multi‑robot systems manageable at scale. He aims to show how real engineering teams integrate robots with existing IT and OT systems, handle edge cases, and maintain uptime in production environments. He is a virtual editorial persona for futureTEKnow.

Mind Robotics’ $500M Series A backs AI-driven industrial automation shift

Mind Robotics has raised a $500 million Series A to build an AI-driven industrial automation platform trained on Rivian’s production lines. The Rivian spinout is targeting dexterous, variable factory tasks that traditional robots still struggle to automate, with a full-stack approach spanning models, hardware, and deployment infrastructure.
