AI chip giant Nvidia is aiming to bring “physical AI” into hospitals, envisioning a future where robots handle tasks like X-rays, linen delivery, and patient monitoring. Through a number of strategic investments and partnerships in digital health and biotech, Nvidia is integrating AI into healthcare, blending physical robots with digital health solutions. According to Nvidia’s VP of Healthcare Kimberly Powell, healthcare will need “a couple of years” to fully embrace physical AI, but with key components already being adopted, that transformation could be closer than we think. This move comes at a time when AI and robotics are revolutionizing industries across the board, with companies like Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP), Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ:ISRG), Serve Robotics (NASDAQ:SERV) and RTX Corporation (NYSE:RTX) leading the charge with groundbreaking applications of AI robotics.
Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) is a Silicon Valley-based security technology innovator that develops fully autonomous security robots and emergency communication systems designed to deter, detect, and report incidents in real time. With their subscription-based Machine-as-a-Service (MaaS) model, Knightscope’s Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) have already seen success patrolling a range of environments, including healthcare facilities, corporate campuses, shopping centers, and public spaces, providing 24/7 surveillance and enhanced situational awareness in high-traffic and sensitive areas.
Knightscope just announced 14 new sales, 10 client renewals, and 4 new security robot deployments across the U.S. in 11 states including California, Texas, and Virginia. These deployments reflect growing demand for security in sectors like corporate campuses, colleges, and local governments.
The 14 new sales include three clients expanding their existing contracts, while 10 clients renewed contracts, highlighting strong trust and satisfaction with Knightscope’s services. The company’s latest K5 Autonomous Security Robots were deployed in four new locations, enhancing safety through real-time public safety information.
On November 13, Knightscope’s Robot Roadshow will visit Quantum Park in Ashburn, VA, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm ET. This event, hosted by Verizon Frontline, will feature live demos of Knightscope’s robots and other safety technology. Visitors can interact with the robots, explore emergency communication tools, and learn about gunshot detection systems.
Building on its success in healthcare security, Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) also just announced two new service contracts for its Full Service Maintenance Plan (FSMP) with healthcare clients in New York and Connecticut. These contracts cover Knightscope’s emergency communication devices, or E-Phones, which are part of the company’s K1 suite designed to enhance safety across hospital campuses.
With challenges like mental health issues, drug dependency, and violent crime impacting healthcare environments, these facilities require reliable security solutions around the clock. Knightscope’s FSMP ensures that E-Phones and other critical communication systems remain fully operational, offering healthcare providers peace of mind with 24/7 access to support and maintenance.

Advances in Robotics and Sustainable Technology Signal Industry Shifts
Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:SERV) recently unveiled its third-generation autonomous delivery robot, an advanced model built to support national scaling with Uber Eats across the US. Designed to be faster, smarter, and more efficient, the new robots cut manufacturing costs by half while enhancing autonomy, safety, and performance. Equipped with Nvidia’s Jetson Orin module for advanced AI-driven navigation, Ouster’s REV7 lidar, and an upgraded sensor suite, these robots can travel farther and operate longer on a single charge. They also feature a larger cargo bin, improved suspension, and increased water resistance for reliable performance in various weather conditions.
Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ:ISRG), a leader in robotic-assisted surgery, just announced its third quarter 2024 results, reporting strong growth, with revenue rising 17% year-over-year to $2.04 billion, driven by an 18% increase in worldwide da Vinci procedures. The company placed 379 da Vinci systems, including 110 of the latest da Vinci 5 models, expanding its global installed base to 9,539 systems—up 15% from last year. Net income for the quarter reached $565 million, or $1.56 per share, marking a 36% increase over Q3 2023. Intuitive also secured regulatory clearance in South Korea for the da Vinci 5 system, broadening its reach in minimally invasive procedures across multiple medical specialties.
Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) just announced its ambitious push into healthcare with plans to bring “physical AI” to hospitals. The tech giant aims to integrate robotics into healthcare settings, envisioning a future where AI-powered robots assist with tasks such as X-rays, patient monitoring, and delivery of essential supplies. Nvidia’s strategy includes partnerships with healthcare providers and investments in digital health and biotech startups, as well as advancements in large language models and digital twins to simulate hospital environments.
RTX Corporation (NYSE:RTX) recently announced that its subsidiary, Pratt & Whitney Canada, has completed a series of emission and contrail measurement flights in collaboration with Deutsche Aircraft, testing synthetic Fischer-Tropsch fuel in Deutsche’s D328® UpLift aircraft. This achievement marks a milestone in sustainable aviation as both companies prepare for Deutsche’s next-generation D328eco aircraft, set to debut in 2027 and designed to run on 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) using Power-to-Liquid (PtL) technology. Conducted in partnership with the German Aerospace Center, the tests confirmed that synthetic fuel can deliver the same performance as conventional kerosene, positioning SAF as a key tool in the aviation industry’s drive toward net-zero emissions by 2050.
Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) announced in October new Full Service Maintenance Plan (FSMP) contracts with healthcare clients in Connecticut and New York, supporting enhanced safety and reliable communication for facilities. The FSMP covers Knightscope’s K1 devices, crucial for security in high-risk areas, ensuring 24/7 operational efficiency and client satisfaction.
