NVIDIA and LG Group are building an AI factory to accelerate LG Group’s next wave of AI-driven businesses, spanning robotics, autonomous driving, data center technologies and GPU cloud services.
The AI factory will provide LG Group with accelerated computing infrastructure to train, simulate, validate and deploy AI-based applications across its key businesses.
The collaboration brings together NVIDIA’s full-stack, end-to-end AI factory platform with LG Group’s global leadership in consumer electronics, robotics, mobility components, smart spaces and data center technologies.
Together, the companies are connecting AI model development, physical AI data generation, robot simulation and training, edge deployment and factory-scale digital twins into a unified workflow for building physical AI systems.
Advancing Physical AI and Robotics
The combination of LG’s production technology data and know-how from global manufacturing sites with NVIDIA’s AI infrastructure and digital twin technologies will help enhance AI-driven manufacturing AI competitiveness. The two companies will collaborate to build an autonomous manufacturing ecosystem in which the entire process — from raw material procurement to production, logistics and customer delivery — is connected in real time through data and AI, and establish it as a new global smart factory standard.
LG Electronics is developing home-based robots like CLoiD to help with a wide range of indoor household tasks, enhancing everyday convenience and improving quality of life.
By integrating the NVIDIA Isaac Sim and NVIDIA Isaac Lab open robotics frameworks into their development workflows, LG can simulate, train and validate these home cobots in physically accurate virtual environments before deployment.
The company is exploring using the NVIDIA Isaac GR00T open, reasoning vision action language model for both its home robots and modular robotics platforms. The GR00T model will provide LG robots humanlike reasoning and the ability to execute complex tasks. NVIDIA and LG Electronics also plan to jointly develop reference robots, positioning LG’s robots as part of the NVIDIA Isaac GR00T ecosystem.
To help overcome the training data challenge for robotics, LG Electronics is developing a physical AI data factory poised to help Korean and global companies accelerate physical AI projects. By turning compute into data, LG will be providing high-quality training data for robotics and industrial AI projects, using NVIDIA Cosmos world foundation models for synthetic data generation and augmentation.
