Doosan Robotics surged more than 14% in early trading on Thursday as investors bet on potential cooperation with Nvidia.
According to the Korea Exchange, shares of Doosan Robotics were trading at 116,600 won as of 9:15 a.m., up 14,400 won, or 14.09%, from the previous session.
The rally appeared to be driven by news that Madison Huang, senior director of product marketing for Omniverse · Robotics and the eldest daughter of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, visited Doosan Robotics’ Innovation Center in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, the previous day.
The two sides discussed technology cooperation in so-called physical artificial intelligence. Madison Huang met with Doosan Robotics CEO Kim Min-pyo to explore ways to integrate Nvidia’s AI and robotics ecosystem into intelligent robot solutions and the development of industrial humanoids.
They also discussed linking Doosan Robotics’ robot execution software under development, the ‘agentic robot operating system,’ with Nvidia’s AI and robotics simulation and training infrastructure. The companies said they plan to pursue a robot execution platform that can be deployed at industrial sites.
Doosan Robotics said its agentic robot operating system is designed to let AI recognize work environments, optimize movement paths and support precise tasks. The company is working to advance the system by building robot-AI interfaces, developing standard robot-control protocols, connecting specialized task models and applying technical guardrails for safety control.
The company plans to roll out intelligent robot solutions using the agentic robot operating system in 2027, followed by an industrial humanoid product in 2028. It is also considering unveiling collaboration results with Nvidia at major exhibitions, including CES in 2027.
