【Base designates AI Agents and robots as the next technological frontier, calling on developers to join】

BlockBeats news, March 5 — The Base ecosystem AI agent platform Virtuals Protocol announced the launch of "Base Batches 003: Robotics," a project led by Virtuals focused on advancing AI agents in the robotics field. Virtuals officials stated that they have been building systems to enable AI agents to perform real work, receive payments, and generate compound interest through open markets. The next technological frontier is embodied artificial intelligence. Robotics technology is highly capable, but what is currently lacking is the structural integration of identity, permissions, and payments—features that allow robotic systems to scale beyond closed deployments. In the future, builders on the Base chain will be able to create robot agents, manage fleets, develop robot data pipelines, or automate workflows from robots to agents via ACP. The "Base Batches 003: Robotics" project is now open for applications. Successful applicants will receive mentorship and up to $50,000 in funding, leading up to the San Francisco Demo Day. Base officials shared the project and stated that combining autonomous agents with robotics is one of the most exciting frontiers in technology.
