PhyAI: The First Unified Edge‑Cloud Inference Runtime for Physical AI

PhyAI introduces a unified inference runtime that serves four Physical AI deployment scenarios—benchmark, cloud RL rollout, edge, and factory MaaS—by consolidating model code, employing a Model Runner and Scheduler, and using a Control‑Time Roofline analysis to reveal latency bottlenecks, achieving up to 4.65× speedup while highlighting the joint limits of hardware and environment on robot control frequency.
