Global AI-Powered Robotics Controller Market Research Report- Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2026 - 2035)

Definition and Scope:

The AI-Powered Robotics Controller Market refers to the industry segment focused on advanced control systems that leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI), including Vision-Language Models (VLM) and Large Language Models (LLM), to enable autonomous decision-making, real-time motion planning, and adaptive learning in robots. These controllers integrate machine perception, edge computing, and deep learning algorithms to enhance robotic performance in industrial automation, logistics, humanoid robotics, and service applications. Unlike traditional programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that require predefined commands, AI-powered controllers enable self-optimization, no-code deployment, and dynamic task execution across diverse robotic platforms. This market is driven by the demand for fully autonomous robots, flexible manufacturing, and AI-driven logistics.

The controller is the brain and cerebellum of the humanoid robot and the core foundation of the industry development. The controller is more ""invisible"" than the actuator, but it plays a vital role in the performance of the robot body, and may become the key point of distance in the long-term development and iteration. It is the core technology of various humanoid robot companies. The overall controller framework usually includes perception, voice interaction, motion control and other aspects. Among them, the motion controller is important and complex. If the robot performs dynamic movement on uneven ground and uncertain external environment, the motion controller needs to adjust its plan and trajectory in real time, and coordinate the status of the two feet and the whole body. Compared with other mature industries, the controller principle of humanoid robots is the same, but there are differences in specific structure and requirements. ① Industrial robots: The controller is used to control the trajectory and spatial position of the robot arm. Compared with humanoid robots, it has higher requirements for control accuracy and process understanding; ② Sweeping robots: The controller is mainly used to plan paths, avoid obstacles, and interact with humans, which is one of the functions of humanoid robot controllers. In addition, the algorithm real-time requirements and controller processing capabilities required by humanoid robots are higher; ③ Car domain controller: It is usually divided into power domain, chassis domain, cockpit domain, autonomous driving domain and body domain. The control principles of the autonomous driving car domain controller and the humanoid robot controller are similar, requiring multi-sensor fusion, positioning, path planning, decision control, image recognition, high-speed communication, and data processing capabilities; However, cars and humanoid robots are different in safety, control accuracy, algorithm requirements, and interface complexity.

Since humanoid robots have not yet been industrialized, there are no companies that supply related controllers in batches; but as the ""brain"" of automation equipment in the industrial and consumer fields, the controller has the same control framework and principle. High-quality companies that have been deeply involved in the controller field for a long time will have obvious first-mover advantages in the new industrial wave.
