NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 30, 2026 / Innodata Inc. (Nasdaq:INOD) today announced the opening of a new R&D laboratory that is designed to generate the data needed to train the next generation of human-like robots and independently validate the performance data that robots generate internally.
