KUKA, in partnership with Algorized, has introduced an innovative safety solution at the prestigious CES 2026 event. The Predictive Safety Engine, powered by real-time Edge AI, is poised to transform human-robot collaboration by enhancing safety without compromising speed.
This breakthrough technology enables robots to interpret wireless signals, granting them a level of “intuition” previously unseen in industrial settings. The Predictive Safety Engine allows robots to sense human physiology, predict intentions, and adapt swiftly to changes in the environment, ensuring high-speed productivity in shared workspaces.
Traditional safety measures often require robots to operate at slower speeds to prevent accidents, but the new Edge AI system allows for full-speed operation while maintaining rigorous safety standards. This development is expected to revolutionize the manufacturing industry by combining efficiency with enhanced security measures.
Visitors to CES can experience this cutting-edge technology firsthand until January 9. The demonstration showcases how Edge AI can transform safety from a limiting factor into an intelligent enabler of productivity and confidence within industrial environments.
KUKA, a leading player in the field of robotic automation, continues to push boundaries with their innovative solutions. The collaboration with Algorized reinforces their commitment to advancing the capabilities of industrial robotics through the use of state-of-the-art technology.
The Predictive Safety Engine stands as a testament to KUKA’s dedication to evolving the interaction between humans and machines, providing a glimpse into the future of manufacturing.
