Torc Robotics

Torc Robotics (Torc), an independent subsidiary of Daimler Truck, is an American autonomous truck company^[1] headquartered in Blacksburg, Virginia, with operations in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Austin, Texas; and Stuttgart, Germany. Torc is testing autonomous trucks in Virginia, New Mexico, and Texas and is taking a pure play approach to commercialization – focusing at first on one platform (Daimler Freightliner Cascadia) in one region (United States).^[2]

Until becoming a subsidiary of Daimler, Torc produced unmanned and autonomous technology that retrofits to existing machinery and vehicles. Its custom products, software and automation kits have been used on vehicles in several industries,^[3] including military, mining agriculture, and automotive over the last decade. Through 2014, 50 percent of Torc's revenue came from defense work and the rest from commercial customers.^[4] Some of its end users include the United States Department of Defense,^[5] the U.S. Marines,^[6] Air Force Research Labs (AFRL),^[7] Caterpillar,^[8] and DCD Protected Mobility.^[9]
