The first wave of IoT connected our world. The current wave of the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) is intelligently automating it. That means that we are now moving beyond simple data collection to devices that perceive, reason, and act in real-time. This requires a deep fusion of specialized hardware, sophisticated AI models, and manufacturing expertise.
For brands launching innovative products, navigating this complexity is absolutely their biggest challenge. As a global ODM partner, Ikotek provides the entire engine for this intelligence. We integrate best-in-class processing platforms from Qualcomm and leading edge-AI chipsets with advanced AI models to deliver market-ready AIoT solutions.
Let's explore the smart devices defining the future and how Ikotek's product lines bring them to life.
Intelligent devices, powered by purpose-built AI
Our AIoT solutions are built around core product categories, each enhanced by specific AI capabilities.
- Smart displays & great PADs: Modern smart displays and great PADs are more than just screens; they are multimodal assistants. Powered by platforms like the Qualcomm QCM6490, they use voice assistant capabilities for command control and can leverage large language models (LLMs) for intelligent Q&A.
- AI boxes: These are the cornerstones of edge computing AI. By processing data locally, they deliver low latency, enhanced privacy, and operational reliability. Ikotek's expertise here is showcased in the following diverse applications:
-
- For two-wheeler safety: Our AI box performs real-time large vision model (LVM) tasks like path detection (identifying bike lanes, sidewalks), pedestrian detection, and tandem riding detection.
- For industrial quality control: Our AI color sorter, based on the high-compute QCM6490, uses camera data models to detect and remove defective grains in real-time, ensuring quality and efficiency on the production line.
- AI translators: Our design, based on the powerful Qualcomm QCS8550 platform, shifts translation from the cloud to the device itself. With a 4-MIC noise reduction algorithm, superior large audio model (LAM) processing, and robust specs (12GB RAM, Wi-Fi 7), it enables fluid, private, and accurate real-time conversation without dependency on a network.
- AI panoramic monitoring for proactive safety and security: Going beyond traditional cameras, our AI panoramic monitoring device (QCM6490) is a vigilant guardian. It supports 8K resolution and uses its substantial computing power (≥6 TOPS) to run LVMs that detect safety hazards in real-time, from checking if staff are wearing safety helmets to identifying smoke, open flames, or unauthorized phone use.
The core technologies: LLM, LAM, LVM, and biometric security
These devices are intelligent because of the AI models we integrate:
- Large language models (LLM) enable complex Q&A capabilities, smart manuals, and content recommendations.
- Large audio models (LAM) provide advanced speech comprehension and synthesis, crucial for clear voice assistants and flawless translation.
- Large vision models (LVM) deliver computer vision for scene understanding, object detection, and facial recognition, forming the basis for biometric security and advanced analytics.
- Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) ensures that AI responses are not only intelligent but also grounded in specific, up-to-date enterprise data, enhancing accuracy and usefulness.
The infrastructure advantage: A hybrid edge & cloud AI approach
The choice between edge computing AI and cloud-based AI is not either/or. That’s because the most powerful systems use both. Ikotek's architecture leverages the edge for immediate, private, and low-latency decisions (e.g., "pedestrian detected, alert rider!") and the cloud for aggregating data, refining AI models, and providing long-term analytics.
