Linda Tsai (Left 3), President of Advantech’s Intelligent Systems Sector & COO, 
led the team at NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026, showcasing Advantech’s comprehensive Industrial
AI capabilities spanning factory-level intelligence, edge computing, and robotics.

"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,](https://www.advantech.com/en/solutions/industrial-and-edge-servers)
[NVIDIA Factory Operations Blueprint (FOX)](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/operate-ai-factories-with-agents/examplecard),
and [NVIDIA NemoClaw™](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai/nemoclaw/). 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](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai/cosmos/)
™ and [NVIDIA Nemotron™](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai-data-science/foundation-models/nemotron/)
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](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-systems/jetson-thor/)
[ Thor](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-systems/jetson-thor/)
™- and [NVIDIA IGX](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/edge-computing/products/igx/)[ Thor](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/edge-computing/products/igx/)
™-powered platforms. The [MIC-742-AT](https://www.advantech.com/en/products/f8c8792f-5837-421d-b268-f40a8fc1e484/mic-742%E2%80%8B/mod_79762a8d-c514-4c3f-b391-7f56a995b758),
powered by [NVIDIA Jetson](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-systems/)
Thor, delivers up to 2,070 TFLOPS (FP4) and integrates [NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/technologies/holoscan-sensor-bridge/)
to synchronize heterogeneous camera and sensor data for real-time robotic perception.
NVIDIA [NemoClaw](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai/nemoclaw/) further enables AI 
Agents to interpret information and automate actions. The [MIC-735-IT](https://www.advantech.com/en/products/f5ae6d7f-14c2-4c4d-b027-448808aba483/mic-735/mod_bdbaa77c-f82b-4c00-a7b3-d161e4d04a6a),
powered by [NVIDIA IGX](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/edge-computing/products/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](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/omniverse/)™-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](https://www.advantech.com/en/products/5bfbf78e-c85b-43d2-83d9-7c12eabc6ef8/air-420/mod_c42bb43e-6ab5-45b7-9837-52e0c1aac11a)
Edge AI HPC can accommodate up to two [NVIDIA RTX PRO™ 6000 Blackwell Max-Q Workstation Edition](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/products/workstations/professional-desktop-gpus/rtx-pro-6000-max-q/)
GPUs for digital twin simulation, synthetic data generation, virtual environment
creation, and AI model post-training. For real-world deployment, the [AFE-A702](https://www.advantech.com/en/products/8d5aadd0-1ef5-4704-a9a1-504718fb3b41/afe-a702/mod_13487539-d213-4c8f-a027-4be489e0fe1a)
robotics controller, powered by NVIDIA [Jetson Thor](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-systems/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.
