# Path Robotics

> Path Robotics builds Physical AI for manufacturing. Our Obsidian AI agent — trained inside Path's Weld World Model on tens of millions of welded inches — powers Intelligent Welding Cells and the Rove mobile welding robot, solving the 400K+ skilled welder shortage in U.S. manufacturing.

Physical AI for Manufacturing — Autonomous Welding. Founded 2018, headquartered in Columbus, Ohio.

## Products

- [Obsidian (Physical AI Agent)](https://www.path-robotics.com/obsidian): Reinforcement-learning agent trained inside Path's Weld World Model on tens of millions of welded inches of real-world data. Provides human-level adaptability for industrial welding without programming.
- [Intelligent Welding Cells](https://www.path-robotics.com/intelligent-welding-cells): Production-ready welding cells powered by Obsidian. Computer vision and machine learning let the system "see" each part, generate the weld path, and adapt in real time — no robot programming required.
- [Rove (Mobile Welding Robot)](https://www.path-robotics.com/rove): Pairs Obsidian's AI welding model with a legged mobile platform, bringing autonomous welding directly to the workpiece. First deployed with Saronic Technologies for shipbuilding in Franklin, Louisiana.
