Robots

From the Robots digest for Oct 26, 2026

New thread

What happened: The Robot Report reports that OMRON will acquire OnLogic, pairing the industrial-computing maker with OMRON's industrial-automation business to serve data- and AI-intensive applications at the edge.

What's genuinely new: a named corporate acquisition announced October 26 — an automation giant buying an industrial-computing company explicitly to address edge-AI applications in factories.

Watch: deal terms and closing timeline, how OnLogic's computing hardware is integrated into OMRON's automation portfolio, and the first named edge-AI applications or customers under the combined company.
