San Francisco, August 19, 2026 — Tensr exhibited at Actuate 26, Foxglove’s annual robotics developer conference, held August 18–19 at the Festival Pavilion, Fort Mason Center. The conference drew more than a thousand robotics developers, with talks from Wayve, Aurora, Physical Intelligence, Zipline, Shield AI, Google DeepMind, and NVIDIA.

Announcing the program in July, Foxglove co-founder and chief executive Adrian Macneil said “Physical AI has graduated from the lab to the real world,” and named scaling it the industry’s defining challenge. The two days ran to that theme, across robot foundation models, simulation, fleet operations, deployment, and production-grade reliability.
