Advantech Launches AI Platform for Robot Control
Advantech introduces new platforms featuring the Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ-9075, integrating AI computer vision and robot control on a single device.
What happened?
Advantech has launched new platforms built on the Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ-9075 chipset. These platforms integrate camera interfaces, image processing, AI acceleration, and real-time functions on a single processor platform. This development aims to streamline industrial applications by combining visual AI directly with robot and machine control.
Key facts
| Lanseringsdatum | 13 juli 2026 |
|---|---|
| Chipset | Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ-9075 |
| AI-prestanda (täta beräkningar) | 100 TOPS |
| AI-prestanda (glesa beräkningar) | 200 TOPS |
| Max antal kameror | 16 |
Why it matters
This integration enables closer coordination between image analysis and machine control. Rather than analysing camera images separately and then transmitting the results to a control system, robots can now directly use AI insights to execute movements or tasks in real time. This can lead to more efficient manufacturing processes through faster response times and increased precision.
Who is affected?
The primary impact is on companies within industrial automation and robotics, as well as developers of AI applications for computer vision. Manufacturing users will benefit from more advanced and efficient robotic solutions. The launch also strengthens Qualcomm's role as a supplier of specialised chipsets.
Impact on the EU
The platform is available globally, including within the EU. This type of AI solution for industrial applications will need to comply with relevant EU regulations regarding safety and data management, although the immediate EU status regarding the launch is that the technology is available on the market.
What else you should know
The Qualcomm IQ-9075 combines an eight-core Kryo Gen 6 processor with an image signal processor, video processor, and AI accelerator. AI performance is stated at 100 TOPS for dense calculations and 200 TOPS for sparse calculations. The platform supports up to 16 simultaneous cameras.
