Decade-long robotics investor and Eclipse Partner Seth Winterroth charts the trajectory of the field through insights from pioneers in our portfolio. These include Vikas Enti, CEO and Co-Founder of Reframe Systems and former Amazon Robotics lead; Adrian Macneil, CEO and Co-Founder of Foxglove and former director of infrastructure at Cruise; Vijay Badrinarayanan, VP of AI at Wayve; as well as industry leaders, such as Kevin Peterson, former head of perception at Waymo, among others. Share In today’s robotics circles, there's a consensus that we’re at an inflection point — a forthcoming boom in human productivity in the real-world. The anticipation in the field isn’t just sparked by phenomenal technical strides — such as a 2,000-fold increase in computational power, plummeting costs of lidar sensors and other hardware, or the emergence of foundation models pioneering new ways of learning with increasing accuracy and robust safety controls. Nor is it because of the fast-growing ecosystem
