According to AI TIMES, Brils said on September 30 that it will push ahead with a humanoid center at its headquarters in Incheon’s Songdo, targeting an opening in the first half of 2027, and move faster on the commercialization of physical AI robots that can be deployed directly in industrial settings. The center will serve as a base that combines research and development with manufacturing, expanding its production facility to 4,654 square meters. The company plans to use the site to establish a design and verification system that covers humanoids, quadruped robots, collaborative and industrial robots, and autonomous mobile robots, while strengthening manufacturing in-house capabilities. At the same time, it aims to upgrade its learning and inference infrastructure, develop models that connect vision, language, and action, and on-device control technology, and build an imitation learning environment based on remote control. Ultimately, it plans to gradually implement an RMR system in which multiple robots work together to build other robots, leading to a model for unmanned factories. Along with the Songdo center, the company also plans to expand its data infrastructure and establish a research institute to accelerate the rollout of its next-generation robot business.
Perspective
The significance of this plan lies in the shift from supplying robots one by one to building a system that links learning, inference, and manufacturing in one place. If that happens, the basis of competition is likely to move away from the performance of individual hardware and toward deployment speed and operational accumulation. In particular, the RMR and unmanned factory concepts point to a broader scope for manufacturing automation, sending a signal to the industry that what matters more than adopting robots themselves is who first secures the foundation to train and scale them continuously.
