May 21 (Reuters) - Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries will partner with Nvidia to develop solutions integrating robotics with physical artificial intelligence, and will set up a joint development center in Silicon Valley, the Nikkei newspaper reported on Thursday.
The collaboration will initially focus on medical and mobility fields, with Nvidia's simulation technology to be applied to Kawasaki Heavy Industries' Corleo, a four-legged personal mobility robot under development, Nikkei added.
As part of the effort, Kawasaki Heavy Industries will open the joint development center in San Jose, California.
In addition to Nvidia, Kawasaki Heavy Industries will work with Analog Devices, Microsoft and Fujitsu at the center, Nikkei said.
Nvidia did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Kawasaki Heavy Industries could not immediately be reached outside business hours.
