Paris-based Mistral AI on July 8 unveiled its first robotics model, marking the European AI leader’s entry into industrial automation. Called Robostral Navigate, the model enables robot navigation using a single camera, eliminating the need for lidar, advanced sensors, or multi-camera setups. It is designed to work across robots from different suppliers and focuses on navigation rather than object manipulation. The launch follows Mistral’s acquisition of Austria’s Emmi AI in May.
