DEEPX ultra-low-power NPUs to be integrated into AAEON's industrial computing lineup, accelerating the deployment of commercial Physical AI across global industries.
TAIPEI, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2026, DEEPX Inc., an ultra-low-power Physical AI semiconductor company, announced a strategic three-year Global Mass Production Cooperation agreement with AAEON Technology Inc., a leading provider of advanced industrial and embedded AI computing platforms. The agreement, signed by both company CEOs, establishes a commercialization pipeline to integrate DEEPX's high-performance Neural Processing Units (NPUs) into AAEON's flagship product lines, including industrial computers (IPCs), Single Board Computers (SBCs), and edge gateways.
Transitioning beyond technical validation, the partnership focuses on scaling hardware into mass-producible products. The companies will manufacture standard form factor AI accelerator modules-including M.2, mPCIe, PCIe cards, and COM Express boards-alongside custom OEM/ODM edge AI products. DEEPX will deliver its AI chipsets, dedicated compilers, and the DXNN SDK, while AAEON will lead hardware design and specification matching for sectors such as smart factories, autonomous robotics (AMR/AGV), smart cities, and edge security.
The agreement builds on established market traction. Platforms combining AAEON hardware and DEEPX semiconductors secured initial global pre-orders immediately following official certification in December 2025. Real-world verification with major global customers has validated exceptional power-to-performance ratios and system stability, accelerating the transition to large-scale production.
This commercial momentum aligns with DEEPX's rapid ecosystem expansion, which has doubled from 15 partners at COMPUTEX 2025 to more than 30 global partners in 2026. Leveraging AAEON's extensive global distribution networks and the ASUS Group, the alliance will jointly pursue market expansion at major global exhibitions, including CES and Embedded World.
