Deepx partners with Baidu to advance on-device AI for industrial applications
Deepx, an AI semiconductor company, has partnered with Baidu to promote global on-device AI solutions in industries such as drones, robotics, and OCR.
The partnership is based on Baidu’s open-source deep learning framework, PaddlePaddle, which supports AI model development and deployment. Deepx’s DX-M1 chip demonstrated high performance and power efficiency with Baidu’s AI models, particularly in edge environments.
Both companies will focus on integrating AI models for drones, robots, and OCR into Deepx’s hardware for real-world applications. Deepx is also converting OpenVINO-based AI models to be compatible with its DX-M1 chip, enhancing adoption within the PaddlePaddle ecosystem.
“Our partnership with Baidu, marks an important turning point in the rapid spread of Deepx’s AI semiconductor technology to global industrial sites,” says Lokwon Kim, CEO of Deepx. “We will strengthen our competitiveness in the global AI market through practical productization based on the PaddlePaddle and ERNIE Ecosystem and various industrial collaborations.”
Deepx is also developing a vision-focused NPU card (V-NPU) to replace GPUs, with mass production expected in September 2025. Future plans include using Samsung’s 2nm AI semiconductor for next-gen product development.
Deepx and DeGirum recently announced a strategic partnership to deliver high-performance, scalable edge AI solutions.
