Physical AI Meetup @ SaaStr Annual: Real-Time Multimodal Agent in the Shell

As foundation models evolve to see, hear, and interact with the real world, the AI agent is finally finding its physical shell.
Coinciding with the SaaStr week, join the Physical AI Camp and a curated group of hardcore builders for an exclusive morning in the Bay Area. We are bringing together pioneers across the full stack—from multimodal LLMs and edge hardware to global connectivity and real-time networks.
🎁 Bring your physical demos! We encourage everyone to bring their prototypes for a deep-dive, hands-on exchange.
🤖🔧 We are hosting a Physical AI Workshop at 1:30 PM in the exact same location. Join us and start hacking.
Meet the Builders:
Dr. Hui Jin, Founder & CEO @ Redtea Mobile
A leading global eSIM innovator actively exploring the "Supply-Chain-to-TikTok" playbook for viral hardware, while building Jumpo AI, an intelligent camera for kids.
Qianze Zhang, Agent Platform Lead @ Agora
Architecting a novel "Dual-Brain" agent framework called NewBro that separates System 1 (sensory reflex) from System 2 (deep reasoning).
John, Product Manager @ StepFun
With StepFun pushing the boundaries of multimodal and Edge AI, John focuses on ultra-low latency TTS/ASR—bringing high-performance voice interactions to everything from software to physical hardware like automotive.
Wei You, Founder @ AutoHeart
Crafting highly expressive physical AI as the co-founder of LOOI, steering the "Smart AI Alien" desktop robot from zero to a Kickstarter bestseller.
Moderators:
Cynthia Yang (Initiator @ RTE Dev Community) and Ziqiang Xu (RTE Dev Community Ambassador & Supersonic Fellow)

About the Hosts
Physical AI Camp
The next era of AI is physical. We are a 12-week, zero-equity cohort seeking startups to bring AI into the physical world. We bridge frontier "Hardware + Agent" architectures with agile manufacturing ecosystems to build miniaturized, multimodal hardware.
Skip the deck. Bring your demo, and let's build.
