Ethan Caldwell
Ethan Caldwell covers robotics, autonomous systems, and industrial automation powered by artificial intelligence. He reports on deployment scale, hardware-software integration, manufacturing capacity, and the economics of automation across logistics, defense, and mobility sectors. His analysis focuses on throughput metrics, system reliability, labor substitution effects, and regulatory approvals that determine commercial viability. Ethan approaches coverage from an operational and engineering standpoint, connecting technical capability to production constraints and cost structure. He also monitors European manufacturing policy and robotics investment flows. Based in Munich, he spends his free time restoring mechanical watches.
