July 8 : Paris-based Mistral AI on Wednesday unveiled its first robotics model as Europe's leading AI company pushes into factories, warehouses and industrial automation.

• Robostral Navigate enables robot navigation using a single camera
• System does not require lidar, advanced sensors or multiple-camera setups
• Designed to work with robots from different suppliers
• Focused on navigation rather than object handling or manipulation
