Featuring robotics, medical AI, and industrial edge deployment powered by NVIDIA Jetson Thor

TAIPEI, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Advantech (TWSE: 2395), a global leader in IoT intelligent systems and embedded platforms, announced it will participate in NVIDIA GTC 2026, taking place March 16–19 in San Jose, California. At Booth #1134 and Meeting Rooms #6077 and #6078, Advantech will showcase next-generation edge AI platforms and solutions powered by technologies from NVIDIA, including NVIDIA Jetson Thor and NVIDIA IGX Thor. The exhibit will highlight how physical AI and edge AI are enabling real-world deployment across robotics, medical systems, smart logistics, and intelligent retail environments. By integrating hardware platforms, AI development frameworks, and ecosystem partnerships, Advantech continues to help enterprises move efficiently from AI evaluation to scalable deployment at the edge.

Ween Niu, General Manager of Advantech North America, noted that as AI rapidly evolves, the industry is moving beyond cloud-based model training toward real-world, physical applications—often referred to as Physical AI. Advantech has long focused on edge computing and edge AI, building industrial-grade platforms designed for performance, reliability, and scalable deployment. At this year's GTC, Advantech will demonstrate its close collaboration within the NVIDIA ecosystem, combining advanced hardware, software frameworks, and industry-ready solutions to accelerate AI adoption in robotics, medical devices, and smart environments while enabling faster deployment of Physical AI across industries.
