Strengthening its push into AI-driven industrial transformation, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has launched a new Gemini Experience Centre in Troy, Michigan, United States. The facility aims to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence solutions in the manufacturing sector.
The centre has been developed in partnership with Google Cloud and is the 7th Gemini Experience Centre (GEC) launched globally. It will focus on developing Physical AI solutions tailored for industrial and manufacturing environments.
According to the company, the facility will allow manufacturers to explore, test, and scale AI-powered applications that improve safety, quality, and operational efficiency. The centre integrates Google’s Gemini models with TCS’ manufacturing expertise. It also features the TCS Physical AI Blueprint, an end-to-end framework that combines robotics, advanced sensing technologies, edge intelligence, and secure cloud orchestration.
The centre in Troy will demonstrate several use cases, including autonomous patrolling and surveillance, environmental anomaly detection, personal protective equipment (PPE) compliance monitoring, intelligent quality inspection, progress mapping, and predictive equipment health monitoring.
Speaking about the initiative, Anupam Singhal, President – Manufacturing at TCS, highlighted the role of Physical AI in real-world operations.
“Physical AI is where intelligence moves to the edge–into the real world of operations. With the launch of our Physical AI Gemini Experience Centre for Manufacturing, we are enabling manufacturers to extend visibility and decision-making into environments that are difficult, risky, or inefficient for humans to access.”
He added that the centre follows a “human-in-the-loop” model, where AI systems work alongside the workforce to improve safety and resilience while helping build adaptive and future-ready industrial environments.
Saurabh Tiwary, Vice President and General Manager of Cloud AI at Google Cloud, said the partnership aims to accelerate the use of agentic AI in industrial operations.
“Our partnership with TCS focuses on accelerating the deployment of agentic AI where it delivers the most significant value to industrial operations. Through the new Physical AI Gemini Experience Centre, we are equipping global manufacturers with the intelligence to build more autonomous, resilient, and data-driven enterprises, allowing them to fully optimize their business models with Google Cloud’s leading technology.”
The launch is part of TCS’ global expansion of Gemini Experience Centres. The company plans to establish a total of 13 such centres by the end of 2026, including 6 additional facilities expected to open later this year.
TCS currently operates 6 other Gemini Experience Centres in Bengaluru, New York, Chennai, Riyadh, Singapore and São Paulo as part of its Pace and innovation network that connects startups, universities, and enterprise customers with emerging technologies.
The new centre also aligns with TCS’ strategy to collaborate with hyperscalers and help enterprises adopt AI technologies across the full stack—from infrastructure to production-ready applications—to support autonomous industrial operations.
