想造机器人但觉得太难？AppliedInt 做了个叫 Dana 的平台，把仿真、数据、RL 环境全整合进一个智能界面，开发速度从周级降到分钟级，去看看他们怎么做到的。
AppliedInt 联合创始人 Qasar Younis 和 Peter Ludwig 宣布推出 Dana，一个用于物理 AI 的 agentic 平台。Dana 集成了他们过去 9 年开发的模拟器、数据引擎、场景编辑器、RL 环境等工具，通过单一 agentic 层连接。该平台使原本需要几天到几周的工作流缩短到几分钟。目标是让中学生也能在家制作配送机器人。

. @AppliedInt Co-founders @qasar and Peter Ludwig on why tools like Dana will make building autonomous robots as easy as building iPhone apps: "Why can't a ninth grader make a delivery robot in their home?" "The robot runs into the wall. Okay, what happened there? The loop closes." "That platform for designing and developing is what we're launching, it's called Dana." "If you look at how tooling has changed in the digital AI world... now everything has moved into a very different, almost IDE. We think the same thing's going to happen in the physical world." "Fundamentally, Dana is our agentic platform for physical AI. And everything that we've built and developed over the past nearly a decade, every tool, every technique, that's available in Dana." "And it's very easy to use with the agentic interface. And so workflows that used to maybe take days or weeks to run, you can now run those in minutes in many cases."

Now we’ve connected them all under one agentic layer. It is not just another harness but also the broader system to safely design, develop, and deploy Physical AI. I continue to believe a modern, AI-first development environment is one of the biggest bottlenecks to putting intelligence on a billion machines. Unsurprisingly, we’ve been using it internally for a while now and the impact has been profound in almost every measurable way. As you might know, our old office was on the corner of Pioneer and Dana – and calling it Pioneer would be too cliche.
