  • Nikon said it aims to combine Trener's AI-powered digital technologies with Nikon robot vision systems for next-generation manufacturing automation.

Trener Robotics develops Acteris, a robot-agnostic Physical AI platform for industrial robots. The platform replaces rigid point-to-point programming with natural-language task instruction, pre-trained production skills, vision-language-action understanding, and partner-led deployment for real production environments.
