Imagine a world where artificial intelligence isn’t confined to the cloud or data centers, but permeates every aspect of our lives, from the factories that build our products to the devices we carry with us. Generative artificial intelligence at the edge promises to revolutionize industries by bringing intelligence closer to where data is created, enabling real-time decision-making and transforming how we interact with technology. We’re building the second generation of our MLSoC with all of this in mind, aiming to simplify edge AI/ML for customers through one, software-centric platform for all edge AI including computer vision, transformers and generative AI.

 

One of the most immediate applications of generative AI is in the manufacturing sector. Advanced technologies — sensors, machine learning, computer vision, robotics and edge computing — have proven to increase supply chain resiliency for manufacturers who adopt them. Tech companies have come to realize the need to diversify their operations and embrace this technology, creating smart manufacturing ecosystems where AI-driven systems are seamlessly integrated into every stage of the production process.

 

TRUMPF, a high-tech company offering manufacturing solutions in the fields of machine tools and laser technology, is at the forefront of this transformation. Integrating artificial intelligence into their workflows has the potential to set a new standard for manufacturing processes. For example, AI integrated into the electric vehicle battery manufacturing workflow will allow TRUMPF’s laser systems to make intelligent decisions in real time, reducing waste and scrap while improving energy efficiencies. This not only enhances sustainability but also drives cost savings and increased competitiveness.

 

Today, TRUMPF announced that SiMa.ai is its key partner for edge AI. We are thrilled to collaborate with a world-renowned leader in laser application expertise to set a new standard for welding, cutting and marking processes. Our cutting-edge MLSoC will serve as the platform for all edge AI solutions, enabling TRUMPF to deploy AI models seamlessly across their operations. This partnership underscores our shared excitement and commitment to accelerating the adoption of AI in real-world applications.

 

We stand at an exciting juncture in the evolution of artificial intelligence. SiMa.ai remains steadfast in our mission to accelerate the application of AI in everyday devices, empowering businesses and individuals alike to harness the transformative power of this technology.
