BlackBerry QNX Introduces All-in-One Functional Safety Platform for Smarter, Safer Robotics

BlackBerry Limited BB division QNX introduced a Functional Safety (FuSa) platform designed for advanced robotic systems.

In collaboration with Intel and NexCOBOT, the platform integrates both robotic and safety controls onto a single NexCOBOT board.

This consolidation is intended to help manufacturers and developers reduce costs, minimize power consumption, enhance thermal efficiency, and lower the risk of hardware failures.

This advanced platform is designed to address the increasing need for integrated, safety-certified solutions in industrial automation and robotics.

Optimized for AI-powered environments, it delivers enhanced computing power and virtualization, supporting AI-driven vision systems, real-time motion control, and other critical robotic functions while adhering to safety certification standards.

Grant Courville, SVP, Products and Strategy at QNX, said, “Based, on our proven track record in delivering safety-certified solutions, developers know that our platform meets the standards of safety and performance.”

”Our continued collaboration with Intel and NexCOBOT means we are able to leverage our expertise to create a unified solution that addresses the complex demands of modern robotics and industrial automation.”

Yesterday, QNX disclosed an expanded collaboration with Advanced Micro Devices to enhance performance in robotic systems and embedded devices.

Investors can gain exposure to the stock via SPDR S&P Kensho Future Security ETF FITE.

Price Action: BB shares are up 1.14% at $4.42 premarket at the last check Wednesday.
