Disney Tests AI Robot Interns

Disney is testing autonomous robots at its theme parks in collaboration with FieldAI and Physical Intelligence. FieldAI is developing systems for droids to navigate parking lots and roam Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge without GPS. Meanwhile, Physical Intelligence is training robots to perform backstage tasks, such as sorting and cleaning 3D glasses used for park attractions.

Physical Intelligence recently conducted a 12-day data collection and testing period at Disneyland between midnight and 6 a.m.
