Advantech (TWSE: 2395) has expanded its Physical AI and robotics platform to meet demand for safe, validated, and deployable robots. The Taipei-based industrial IoT company built the platform on a five-layer architecture: perception, AI computing and motion control, functional safety, production and validation, and deployment and management. Its MIC-735-IT, powered by NVIDIA IGX Thor, can be configured with a Renesas Safety MCU. The design separates the AI compute path from an independent safety path that monitors system health and detects faults. Advantech supports customers working toward standards including IEC 61508 and ISO 13849. System integrators or end customers remain responsible for final hazard analysis, validation, and certification. The company will demonstrate the systems at NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026.

This flexibility helps simplify hardware selection across kitchen, customer-facing, and back-of-house deployments. Measuring 180 x 150 x 35 mm, DS-540 is designed for installation behind displays and in other space-constrained locations. Eight VESA through-holes support direct mounting with 75 x 75 mm and 100 x 100 mm patterns, while black and silver enclosure options accommodate different installation requirements. The fanless architecture supports quiet operation and eliminates cooling-fan maintenance. An IP40-rated enclosure, flexible 12-24V DC input, and an operating temperature range of 0-60°C with 0.7 m/s airflow support indoor kitchen and back-of-house deployments. A remote switch interface also allows convenient power control when the computer is installed behind a monitor or within an enclosure. Versatile connectivity and OS support streamline system integration. DS-540 provides one 2.5GbE LAN port, four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, and two RS-232 ports for connecting restaurant networks and compatible peripherals, including touch interfaces, barcode scanners, and receipt printers. An M.2 2242 M-Key slot supports SATA or PCIe storage, while an M.2 2230 E-Key slot accommodates optional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules. Supporting Windows 11 IoT LTSC and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, DS-540 gives developers and system integrators flexibility to deploy their preferred KDS, kiosk, and digital signage software. By combining efficient computing, multiple display interfaces, and a compact installation design, DS-540 helps customers build connected restaurant display solutions that support clearer order visibility and coordinated daily operations.

Advantech advances autonomous industrial AI with AI Factory Brain and Physical AI at NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026. Oct 21, 2026, 09:49 ET TAIPEI, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Advantech (TWSE: 2395), a global leader in intelligent systems and embedded platforms, today announced its participation in NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026, taking place October 20-22 in Berlin, Germany. At Booth #7018, Advantech will demonstrate its expanding industrial AI capabilities spanning factory-level intelligence, edge computing, and robotics. Centered on AI Factory Brain and Physical AI, the showcase highlights how Advantech is working with NVIDIA to connect AI orchestration, real-time perception, and autonomous action across industrial environments, accelerating the transition from isolated AI applications toward more intelligent and autonomous operations. "Our partnership with NVIDIA is built on a shared commitment to redefining what AI can do in the industrial world. AI Factory Brain delivers goal-driven orchestration at the factory level; Physical AI extends that intelligence to the edge, where machines act autonomously. Together, we are building the ecosystem where that future becomes standard practice, " said Linda Tsai, President, Intelligent System Sector & COO, Advantech. AI Factory Brain - From Operational Data to Goal-Driven Factory Orchestration As manufacturing environments generate increasingly complex volumes of operational data, the next stage of industrial AI lies not only in collecting and analyzing information, but in enabling AI systems to coordinate decisions and actions across entire operations. Advantech's AI Factory Brain brings together Central, Simulation, and Edge AI Agents, supported by Advantech SKYRack server and systems, NVIDIA Factory Operations Blueprint (FOX), and NVIDIA NemoClaw(TM). This architecture represents a shift from reactive, application-specific AI toward goal-driven orchestration, enabling multiple AI agents to work collectively toward shared operational objectives. Already deployed across 20 production lines within Advantech's own manufacturing operations, AI Factory Brain demonstrates how coordinated AI can move beyond individual use cases toward factory-wide intelligence and increasingly autonomous decision-making. "AI Factory Brain is the factory's intelligent command center. Set a target - increase output by ten percent - and it analyzes bottlenecks, coordinates agents, and delivers an improvement plan ready for my review. Real-time data from NVIDIA Cosmos(TM) and NVIDIA Nemotron(TM) keep me updated daily, so we can adjust as we go. Output per employee in Q3 is 13.2% higher than in Q2, including an 8.91% output gain delivered by five AI agents in actual operation," said Frank Huang, Senior Director of Manufacturing Center, Advantech. Physical AI - Extending Intelligence to the Real-World Edge As AI moves into physical operations, intelligence must extend to where machines perceive, decide, and act in real time. Advantech combines edge AI computing, multi-sensor perception, AI Agent capabilities, and functional safety to enable more autonomous and responsive intelligent machines and robotic systems. At GTC Berlin, Advantech will demonstrate this approach through its NVIDIA Jetson Thor(TM)- and NVIDIA IGX Thor(TM)-powered platforms. The MIC-742-AT, powered by NVIDIA Jetson Thor, delivers up to 2,070 TFLOPS (FP4) and integrates NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge to synchronize heterogeneous camera and sensor data for real-time robotic perception. NVIDIA NemoClaw further enables AI Agents to interpret information and automate actions. The MIC-735-IT, powered by NVIDIA IGX Thor, extends Physical AI capabilities with functional safety, including an outside-in safety demonstration that detects people entering defined safety zones and triggers immediate responses, helping enable safer human-robot interaction. Sim-to-Real Robotics - Accelerating the Path from AI Development to Deployment The growing adoption of robotics requires enterprises to shorten the path between AI development, simulation, validation, and real-world deployment. Advantech is addressing this challenge through a Sim-to-Real architecture that connects AI computing, NVIDIA Omniverse(TM)-based simulation, robotics control, and multi-sensor integration. By creating a more continuous development and deployment environment, Advantech aims to help industrial customers validate robotic behavior more efficiently and accelerate the adoption of AI-enabled automation across diverse operating environments. Supporting this workflow, the NVIDIA-Certified Advantech AIR-420 Edge AI HPC can accommodate up to two NVIDIA RTX PRO(TM) 6000 Blackwell Max-Q Workstation Edition GPUs for digital twin simulation, synthetic data generation, virtual environment creation, and AI model post-training. For real-world deployment, the AFE-A702 robotics controller, powered by NVIDIA Jetson Thor, supports multiple GMSL 2D and 3D cameras from ecosystem partners including Intel RealSense and Stereolabs. Combined with NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge and Advantech Robotic Suite, the architecture enables more integrated multi-sensor perception and provides a scalable foundation for robotics applications moving from simulation into industrial environments. Experience the AI Factory Brain and Physical AI in Action Advantech invites industry partners and customers to visit Booth #7018 at NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026 to experience how AI Factory Brain, Physical AI, and Sim-to-Real technologies are converging to reshape industrial operations. From factory-wide AI orchestration to intelligent machines and robotics at the edge, Advantech is demonstrating a unified approach to bringing AI from digital intelligence into real-world action - supporting industries as they advance toward more autonomous, adaptive, and intelligent operations.
