GoKawiilBlackBerry says QNX robotics software now among its fastest-growing units
BlackBerry CEO John Giamatteo told CNBC that robotics has become one of the fastest-growing segments within its QNX software division, which is already embedded in 275 million vehicles for safety-critical automotive functions. He said QNX is increasingly powering industrial robots, warehouse forklifts and medical devices rather than humanoid robots, and that a portion of QNX's $950 million order backlog comes from robotics customers.
