Expansion of Global Gemini Experience Center Network

The Troy facility represents a significant milestone in the global expansion of the Gemini Experience Center network led by TCS and Google Cloud.

By the end of 2026, the companies plan to operate 13 Gemini Experience Center locations worldwide, with six additional centers expected to launch during the year.

As artificial intelligence adoption accelerates across industries, the Gemini Experience Center network will play a key role in helping enterprises move beyond limited AI experiments toward scalable, production-ready transformation programs.

The centers are designed to help organizations test real-world AI use cases and deploy solutions at scale.

Physical AI Innovation for Manufacturing

The Gemini Experience Center in Troy focuses on advancing Physical AI applications for the manufacturing sector. Through this initiative, manufacturers will be able to explore, test, and scale AI-driven use cases aimed at improving safety, quality, and operational efficiency.

At the core of the Gemini Experience Center is the TCS Physical AI Blueprint, an end-to-end framework that integrates AI-powered quadruped and humanoid robotics with advanced sensing technologies, edge intelligence, and secure cloud orchestration.

This framework enables real-time operational insights and autonomous decision support across industrial environments. Key use cases demonstrated at the Gemini Experience Center include:

  • Autonomous patrolling and surveillance
  • Environmental anomaly detection
  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) compliance monitoring
  • Intelligent quality inspection
  • Progress mapping
  • Predictive equipment health monitoring

These capabilities are designed to help manufacturers implement Physical AI solutions that enhance shopfloor visibility and operational performance.

Anupam Singhal, President – Manufacturing at Tata Consultancy Services, said: “Physical AI is where intelligence moves to the edge – into the real world of operations. With the launch of our Physical AI Gemini Experience Center for Manufacturing, we are enabling manufacturers to extend visibility and decision-making into environments that are difficult, risky, or inefficient for humans to access.

Designed with a human-in-the-loop approach, Physical AI operates alongside the workforce, strengthening safety and resilience. The real impact is creating future-ready industrial environments that are safer, more adaptive, and continuously aware – at scale.”

Saurabh Tiwary, VP and General Manager, Cloud AI at Google Cloud, added: “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 Center, 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.”

Driving Future-Ready Industrial Transformation

The Troy Gemini Experience Center further strengthens TCS’ global innovation footprint and aligns with the company’s strategy of collaborating with hyperscalers to help enterprises navigate the next phase of AI-powered industrial transformation.

Through curated demonstrations and scenario-based workshops at the Gemini Experience Center, enterprises can gain practical insights into accelerating AI adoption – from infrastructure development to production-ready solutions.

These programs are designed to improve shopfloor performance, modernize enterprise AI platforms, and enable autonomous industrial operations.

Part of TCS Pace Innovation Ecosystem

With the addition of the Troy facility, TCS now operates six Gemini Experience Centers in:

  • Bengaluru
  • New York City
  • Chennai
  • Riyadh
  • Singapore
  • São Paulo

These facilities are part of the company’s TCS Pace and innovation network, which connects startups, universities, and customers to cutting-edge technology and research.

TCS has also recently expanded its collaboration with Google Cloud to broaden customer access to Gemini Enterprise. The expanded partnership enables TCS teams to build custom AI agents and integrate pre-built Google Cloud agents as well as third-party agents within Gemini Enterprise.
