Advantech adopts Intel Core ultra processors to accelerate Edge AI and Edge computing innovations
Advantech has announced that 12 products, including industrial motherboards, PICMG 1.3 full-size single board computers (SBCs), computer-on-modules, server motherboards, compact IPCs, modular IPCs, and AMR & robot solutions will incorporate the Intel Core Ultra processor (Series 2) into their latest edge computing and IoT solutions. This integration will boost AI efficiency and computing performance, reduce development time, and address power and thermal challenges, focusing on high-performance computing with low power consumption.
These product offerings are well-suited for various applications, including machine automation, machine vision, medical imaging, in-vitro diagnostics, automated optical inspection, smart warehouses (DWS systems), self-service kiosks, and edge AI applications.
Advantech products featuring Intel® Core Ultra processors (Series 2) are scheduled to launch starting Q2 2025. The desktop range will feature up to 24 CPU cores, delivering up to 36 total platform TOPS, while the mobile range will offer up to 16 CPU cores, providing up to 99 total platform TOPS. Both product lines are equipped with a Neural Processing Unit (NPU). They are designed to support diverse inferencing workloads and elevate AI acceleration to a new level, thereby supercharging edge computing in the AI era.
