RobOpsCon 2026
Thursday, October 22, 2026
Mountain View, CA, USA
The premier conference on scaling robot operations.
A day of keynotes, panels, lightning talks, and a hands-on workshop on the hardest problems in physical AI operations.
Now in its third edition, RobOpsCon brings together practitioners to share the lessons learned and network with top industry operators.
The Robot Operations Group is a cross-industry community of 400 robotics engineers, operators, and founders working to define and advance best practices for operating robots at scale. RobOpsCon is its flagship in-person event.
The conference program is built around lessons from real deployments: what practitioners shipped, what broke, and what they learned running fleets in production.
Program Themes
Theme 01
Orchestrating Heterogeneous Fleets
Coordinating AMRs, humanoids, cobots, and fixed automation in the same space or across the world. Real-time spatial conflict resolution, task allocation across robots with different capabilities and APIs, and fleet behavior during partial failures in mixed-vendor environments.
Theme 02
Scaling Data Pipelines for Physical AI
Large deployments are becoming the most productive data-generation infrastructure available. Capturing, labeling, and routing high-fidelity telemetry at fleet scale to feed embodied model training and close the sim-to-real gap.
Theme 03
Decentralized Intelligence for Large Fleets
The shift from centralized, deterministic control to on-robot decision-making. Coordination protocols without a single point of failure, safety guarantees, and observability when intelligence is distributed across hundreds of nodes.
Theme 04
Hands-On OpenRobOps Workshop
A working session built around OpenRobOps, InOrbit.AI's open-source fleet operations platform. Launch your own instance, connect robots in simulation, and work hands-on with monitoring, alerting, and remote operation. Bring a laptop, or your own robot to connect.
Detailed agenda will be published closer to the event.
