4:30 PM – 7:30 PM CDT
Autonomy in Motion: Drones, UAV, USV, UUV & Supply Chains
About this event
The September Texas Physical AI Builders meetup at Little Woodrow's Domain Northside — a happy hour and technical gathering on unmanned systems and physical autonomy, this month adding supply chains to the drone, surface-vessel, and subsea focus.
Physical autonomy, on air, land, sea and space
The monthly Texas Physical AI Builders gathering, co-hosted with Austin–San Antonio Entrepreneurs. The organizers pitch it as a targeted technical meetup rather than a casual happy hour, aimed at people working in robotics, hardware, edge AI and deep tech across the Texas innovation corridor.
The September edition keeps the series' unmanned-systems spine — UAVs and drones, aerial autonomy and airspace management, unmanned surface vessels for maritime logistics and defense, and subsea systems — and adds supply chains to the title, extending the conversation from the vehicles themselves to the industrial base behind them.
Who shows up
A mix of engineers building autonomy stacks, founders scaling hardware companies, and investors tracking the sector. There is an explicit pitching and networking element alongside the technical content, so come prepared to describe what you are working on.
Practical details
Free to attend, at Little Woodrow's Domain Northside, 11420 Rock Rose Ave #130.
One caveat on the start time. The structured event time reads 4:30 p.m., while the organizer's own description text says "4:00 PM CDT onwards" — the two have not been reconciled upstream, and this series has had the same mismatch before. The listing follows the structured time; arrive by 4:00 p.m. if you want to be certain of catching the start, and treat 4:30 as the latest safe arrival.
Organized by
A Texas community connecting founders, engineers, investors, and researchers working across robotics, intelligent hardware, edge AI, and embodied systems.
