Headquartered in Blacksburg, Virginia, Torc Robotics develops software that enables autonomous operation for the trucking and freight sector, providing a full platform to support autonomous trucking. The company was acquired by Daimler in August 2019, aligning it with a leading heavy‑duty truck manufacturer and anchoring it within the broader commercial trucking ecosystem. Torc emphasizes real‑world applicability and collaborates with other industry players to move autonomous trucking from concept to deployment. Recent developments in 2026 include expanding its offices to Michigan and beginning testing of autonomous trucks on public roads in the state. These steps indicate continued deployment efforts and an ongoing focus on advancing autonomous freight technology in real operating environments.
