DeepX (CEO Kim Nok-won) announced on the twenty fourth that it has signed a business agreement (MOU) with Hyundai Motors and Kia to mount artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductors for robot platforms.

This agreement goals to cooperate in technology to use DeepX’s AI semiconductor technology to the robot platform being developed by Hyundai Motor and Kia for commercialization.

The 2 firms plan to implement AI functions to be utilized in robots in DeepX’s AI ‘System on Chip’ products and implement them in robots developed by Robotics Lab.

DeepX is a semiconductor development company (fabless) for on-device AI computing. It possesses 4 varieties of AI semiconductors whose performance and functions are optimized for edge and server AI applications, and has secured greater than 150 domestic and foreign patents related to AI semiconductor source technology.

It is alleged that the AI ​​function was proven within the preliminary technology verification process conducted with Hyundai Motors and Kia Robotics Lab over the past 12 months. He also added that the robot application AI algorithm ran easily and showed high AI computational efficiency.

Kim Nok-won, CEO of DeepX, said, “This technological cooperation is a chance for DeepX’s AI semiconductor to grow to be a key solution in the long run market in the sphere.” ”he said.

“We expect to have the opportunity to guide the event of wonderful robotics services by combining DeepX’s hardware technology,” said Hyun Dong-jin, executive director of Hyundai Motor and Kia Robotics Lab. told
