Anthropic introduced on August 27 the Model Hardware Standard, a protocol enabling AI agents like Claude to discover and control physical devices such as robotic arms or laboratory instruments. QuEra, a testing partner, achieved a 99.3% success rate compared to 58% with custom scripts. Integration timelines dropped from several weeks to just hours. Safety is embedded in the standard through operational constraints like speed limits and angle restrictions. The standard is model-agnostic and compatible with Anthropic’s existing Model Context Protocol.
