Physical AI Meetup Auckland

A big thanks to our university partner, UoADSC — University of Auckland Data Science Club, for partnering with us for another Physical AI Meetup in Auckland.

This Auckland edition is brought to you by element14, together with UoADSC, bringing together engineers, researchers, students, founders, industry partners, suppliers, and innovators to explore how AI moves from software into the real physical world — across edge devices, embedded systems, sensors, AI hardware, FPGA platforms, local LLMs, and real-world intelligent products.

Pizza and drinks for this meetup are made possible by element14, supporting the growing Physical AI community across Australia and New Zealand as our trusted electronic components distributor.

Take the mic at our Community Open Mic.

Share a quick demo, prototype, research idea, startup project, hardware design, embedded AI project, robotics work, or collaboration announcement — whether it is AI, hardware, sensors, robotics, edge computing, FPGA, local LLMs, or something you are building. All welcome.

Please have your Eventbrite ticket ready at check-in — then enjoy pizza, drinks, and time to connect with other attendees.

Hear a short welcome from the organisers and an introduction to the Physical AI Meetup community across Australia and New Zealand.

Short informal shares — demo, prototype, research idea, startup project, hiring announcement, collaboration opportunity, project update, or community announcement. Each share will be around 1–2 minutes.

Any further Q&As, discussions, and chats will happen here.

Connect with students, researchers, engineers, founders, sponsors, suppliers, and industry partners — and explore how we can work together to turn ideas into real products.
