Protocol Infrastructure Launches Robot Fleet Framework for Commercial Buildings
Protocol Infrastructure launches the Protocol Asset Index, a vendor neutral framework for coordinating robot fleets from multiple suppliers in commercial buildings, the company said in a press release.
The index assesses a property's physical constraints, network continuity and API readiness. It produces a remediation roadmap, a technical specification sheet for procurement and a machine readable map of access paths, interfaces and constraints.
Protocol OS and Protocol SDK will follow in the first quarter of 2027. Protocol OS will connect robot fleets with elevators, automatic doors and access control systems, while the open source SDK will let robotics companies access certified buildings without creating a separate integration for each property. The company says Protocol OS will process fleet identity and transit events without collecting video or tenant personal information.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?
Tensordyne
This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
