The newly announced $675 million sale of Vermont industrial computer maker OnLogic to Japanese electronics giant Omron is all about AI — just not the kind that dominates the headlines and policy debates. With the acquisition, Omron and OnLogic — which the companies say will retain its brand, leadership and South Burlington headquarters — aim to accelerate their push into the emerging field of AI-driven factory automation, or physical AI. Vermont economic observers said the deal should give OnLogic the resources to grow in the fast-moving arena. “I think it’s going to be a tremendously positive opportunity,” said Frank Cioffi, president of the Greater Burlington Industrial Corporation. OnLogic has been creating rugged, industrial-grade computers that can handle vibration and extreme temperatures since its founding in 2003. Founders Lisa and Roland Groeneveld have grown OnLogic from a spousal startup to a 300-employee operation with locations in several countries and a $60 million headquarters along Interstate 89 in South Burlington.

Trump golf course: DOJ official clashes with judge in DC golf course case after Trump attacks her
A contentious hearing is underway in Washington, D. C., where lawyers for the Trump administration are facing off with a federal judge pushing for answers over whether she was deliberately misled by the government over why it removed hundreds of trees from a local public golf course. D. C. District Judge Ana Reyes has ordered testimony from Interior Department official Gregory Wischer and acting Director of the National Park Service Jessica Bowron over why the government moved abruptly on Columbus Day weekend to remove more than 500 trees from East Potomac golf course without giving her proper advance notice. Last week, Reyes erupted at attorneys for the government after the trees were removed despite her demanding the administration alert her in advance if it planned any significant alterations to the course given ongoing litigation. The golf course has been the subject of litigation brought by the D. C. Preservation League in response to President Donald Trump's efforts to turn it into a course that could host professional tournaments.
