MEMPHIS, Tenn. and REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – July 30, 2026 – FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) and Dexterity Inc., the enterprise physical AI company building intelligent robots for complex industrial work, today announced an expanded collaboration to scale Dexterity’s Foresight world model and Mech trailer loading systems at the FedEx Hagerstown Hub in Maryland. Built on multiple years of joint development, testing, and operational validation, the Hagerstown deployment expands the program beyond the pilot site previously used to validate the technology. It enables production at a significantly larger operational scale, with a continued focus on improving safety, consistency, and performance.
Trailer loading remains one of the most physically demanding and challenging workflows in parcel logistics and is fundamental to FedEx operations. It requires physical strength, endurance, and real-time problem solving, and is one of the top areas where team members seek additional support. With tens of thousands of trailers loaded daily across the FedEx network in the U.S., this process has historically been difficult to automate using traditional solutions. Through its collaboration with Dexterity, FedEx is establishing not only how physical AI performs in trailer loading operations, but also how the technology integrates into broader hub operations, including destination planning, trailer assignment, maintenance, and workforce processes.
Dexterity’s trailer loader is powered by Foresight, its world model for physical AI that makes real-time decisions in dynamic environments. By combining vision, depth, and touch, Foresight predicts how physical AI actions impact the world. In autonomous trailer loading, it reasons across three spatial dimensions and time to optimize how packages are placed for space, stability, and speed across a wide range of operating conditions. Foresight powers Dexterity’s dual-armed superhumanoid robot, Mech, which is designed for heavy industrial operations, while remaining compact enough to operate inside trailers.
“FedEx has a long history of using technology to make our network safer, smarter, and more resilient,” said Kawal Preet, executive vice president, planning, engineering, and transformation at FedEx. “This expanded collaboration with Dexterity reflects our commitment to advancing capabilities that improve how we operate today while helping prepare our network for the future. As we continue evaluating and deploying physical AI in real-world environments, we see opportunities to enhance the speed, reliability, and flexibility of our network, creating long-term value for our business and customers.”
“FedEx has been an extraordinary partner, bringing deep operational expertise, an unwavering focus on safety, and a clear vision for how physical AI fits into the future of logistics,” said Samir Menon, PhD, founder and chief executive officer of Dexterity. “Hagerstown represents an important milestone in demonstrating how physical AI can operate reliably in a high-volume logistics environment, creating a blueprint for network expansion. This technology is not just a future promise; it can perceive, decide, and act in the real world today.”
