Physical AI and Robotics
Physical AI and robotics for intelligent operations.
TD SYNNEX’s mission is to bring velocity and scale to physical AI. To that end, we help customers and vendors navigate the convergence of IT, operational technology (OT), physical AI and robotics. From readiness assessments and use case discovery to ecosystem partnerships and deployment planning, we provide a practical path from exploration to intelligent automation.
You don’t need to navigate physical AI and robotics alone. TD SYNNEX helps you assess readiness, build a roadmap bridging IT and OT, and confidently move from exploration to deployment.
Build the foundation for intelligent operations.
If you’re interested in joining our early access program launching Q1, contact us to begin creating a robotics practice within your four walls.
Joining the program gets you access to our line card, technical resources, presales support, sales enablement, practice building, marketing campaigns, use case workshops and access to digital twin platforms, assessments and our platform for physical AI lifecycle for reinforcement learning training.
Connecting AI to the physical world.
Physical AI brings intelligence into real-world environments through robotics, autonomous systems, vision AI, simulation and digital twins. With AI moving beyond software, organizations need a coordinated approach that brings together technology, infrastructure and operational expertise.
Today’s physical AI and robotics initiatives depend on multiple technology domains working together:
Physical AI and robotics:
A growing sector with emerging opportunities.
As intelligent automation expands across industries, new opportunities are emerging across robotics hardware, simulation software, AI infrastructure and services.
With the market opportunity for physical AI and robotics sitting at $1T, half of that will be from specialty robotic components, robot arms, mobile robots, cobots (which are robots that work alongside humans), robot brains, social robots and humanoids.
The other half is from solutions vendors already sell, such as power, networking, edge compute, storage, cameras, security, integration and services – all of which will need to be upgraded to support the power and data demands of physical AI.
Forecasted industry growth of the physical AI ecosystem: $1T by 2030, with a 30% YoY growth clip.*

Why physical AI and robotics matter to you.
Several technology trends are converging to make intelligent automation a business priority.
IT and OT are converging.
Modern robotics deployments require close integration between enterprise IT infrastructure and operational technology environments.
AI is moving beyond software.
Organizations are increasingly looking to bring AI into physical environments through robotics, autonomous systems and intelligent operations.
The readiness gap is growing.
Most facilities were not designed for autonomous robots, digital twins, computer vision or AI inference at the edge. TD SYNNEX helps bridge the gap between ambition and execution.
Thirty-five percent of CEOs ranked physical AI among their top three emerging technologies for new investment over the next 12-24 months.*

TD SYNNEX is building the ecosystem for intelligent operations.
TD SYNNEX serves as the connective tissue between robotics, physical AI, AI infrastructure, cloud, security and lifecycle services. Few organizations can combine the scale, partner ecosystem and technology expertise needed to connect these worlds.
Key differentiators
TD SYNNEX has over 150,000 reseller customers and more than 2,500 technology vendors, integration and lifecycle services, global logistics capabilities and financing expertise.
Industries we support
TD SYNNEX supports industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, retail, hospitality, aerospace and defense, logistics, warehousing and distribution operations. These industries increasingly seek guidance on robotics adoption, intelligent automation and physical AI strategies.
TD SYNNEX helps partners enter and scale the physical AI and robotics market without having to build every capability themselves. Whether you’re exploring robotics for the first time or preparing to scale intelligent automation, TD SYNNEX helps simplify the journey.
TD SYNNEX is actively transforming its Fort Worth distribution facility into a demonstration environment for robotics, digital twins, computer vision, AI infrastructure and automation technologies.
