Insider Brief
- DeepX is partnering with Hyundai Motor Group’s Robotics LAB to develop an AI computing platform for robotics designed to run large-scale models directly on-device, as companies push more AI processing to the edge.
- The collaboration will focus on low-power semiconductor architecture, hardware systems, software and application libraries to support capabilities such as vision-language-action and vision-language models, enabling real-time perception, reasoning and action in robotic systems.
- DeepX said its DX-M2 chip will serve as a core component of the platform, adding that the physical AI semiconductor market could reach about $123 billion by 2030, with robotics and humanoids as primary drivers.
DeepX announced it is partnering with Hyundai Motor Group’s Robotics LAB to develop a next-generation AI computing platform for robotics, focused on running large-scale models directly on robotic systems.
According to DeepX, the collaboration will center on building low-power computing architecture, hardware systems, software and application libraries to support capabilities such as vision-language-action and vision-language models, which enable robots to perceive, understand and act in real time.
“The AI industry is rapidly shifting from data center-centric models to a Physical AI era. Ultra-low-power computing capable of running AI in real-world systems will become the core infrastructure,” DeepX CEO Lokwon Kim said in the announcement. “DeepX aims to become the global leader in Physical AI computing platforms powering AI across robotics and industrial systems.”
DeepX said its DX-M2 chip will serve as a core component of the effort, designed to run generative AI models on-device in robotics and industrial systems, as companies look to shift more AI processing from the cloud to edge-based environments.
“In the era of Physical AI, robots are becoming the closest point of contact between AI technology and people,” Dong Jin Hyun, Vice President, Head of Robotics LAB, Hyundai Motor Group. “At Hyundai Motor Group Robotics LAB, our goal is to create robots that can naturally coexist with humans — and to achieve this, we are strategically building a core technology ecosystem in collaboration with specialized partners worldwide.”
DeepX said the market for physical AI semiconductors could reach about $123 billion by 2030, driven largely by demand from robotics and humanoid systems. The company added that it has been working with Hyundai Motor Group’s Robotics LAB for the past three years to develop low-power edge computing technology for robots.
