If the deal proceeds without the Chinese operations, ABB and SoftBank would run separate robotics businesses that previously shared development resources. This split could force both businesses to invest in their own computing infrastructure rather than share the cost. Nvidia stands to benefit because its Omniverse technology is already integrated into ABB’s RobotStudio HyperReality software. The two businesses will therefore need additional Nvidia computing hardware and software to develop and test their systems independently. Beijing could therefore keep Chinese robotics assets out of SoftBank’s hands but inadvertently direct more spending towards Nvidia.
