Altos Computing and Industry.AI Launch YodaEdge
Altos Computing Ltd (An Acer Group Company) announced a
strategic partnership with Industry.AI (BLP Group Company) to deploy YodaEdge, a
secure, scalable, and sovereign edge AI platform designed to bring real-time
artificial intelligence directly to industrial and urban environments across
India. Powered by NVIDIA accelerated
computing, YodaEdge aims to enable manufacturers,
MSMEs, and infrastructure operators to operationalise AI at the
point of action, supporting India’s ambition of building a resilient,
manufacturing-led economy.
As
India advances towards a $7 trillion economy, the role of manufacturing, MSMEs,
and critical infrastructure in driving productivity, exports, and employment
continues to expand. However, AI adoption across these sectors has been limited
by challenges such as cloud dependency, latency, data security concerns, and
the complexity of deploying AI in real-world industrial conditions. YodaEdge™
addresses these challenges through an edge-first, on-premises architecture that
delivers enterprise-grade AI capabilities while ensuring low latency, high
reliability, and full control over sensitive operational data.
YodaEdge
integrates Industry.AI’s Orion industrial AI platform with Altos edge-optimised
infrastructure servers, accelerated by NVIDIA GPUs and AI software. This
pre-integrated “AI in a Box” solution
allows enterprises to deploy advanced AI workloads locally, reducing reliance
on distant cloud infrastructure and aligning with India’s priorities around
data localisation and technological self-reliance.
Commenting
on the partnership, Priya Murthy,
Director, Altos India, said, “India’s next phase of digital and industrial growth will depend on how
effectively intelligence is embedded into physical infrastructure. Through our
Altos portfolio of workstations, we are focused on delivering data centre-grade
AI performance at the edge, where latency, reliability, and security are
critical. Our collaboration with Industry.AI on YodaEdge enables enterprises to
deploy scalable, sovereign AI solutions that are practical, resilient, and
designed for real industrial environments.”
Built
specifically for factory floors and distributed infrastructure, YodaEdge, supports
a range of high-impact use cases, including computer vision-based safety
monitoring for real-time detection of unsafe conditions and PPE non-compliance,
predictive maintenance models that analyse machine behaviour to reduce
unplanned downtime, and AI-powered knowledge assistants that provide instant
access to standard operating procedures, manuals, and historical maintenance
data at the point of use. Industry benchmarks indicate that AI-led safety
systems can reduce incidents by up to 70%, while predictive maintenance can cut
downtime by as much as 50%.
The
platform also targets AI adoption among India’s MSMEs, which contribute over
35% of GDP and close to half of manufacturing output. By simplifying
deployment, reducing implementation timelines, and delivering measurable ROI
within operational cycles, YodaEdge™ lowers the barriers that have
traditionally prevented smaller enterprises from adopting AI at scale.
Tejpreet
Chopra, Founder and CEO of Industry.AI, said: “For AI to create real value in manufacturing
and infrastructure, it must operate where decisions are made — on the factory floor
and at the edge. YodaEdge is built for exactly this reality. Powered by Orion
OS, the operating system for manufacturing, and informed by years of hands-on
AI implementation across automotive, steel, airports, and more, YodaEdge™
brings unmatched industrial intelligence to the edge. With proprietary machine
language models and autonomous agents, it delivers real-time insights with the
reliability and security enterprises demand. Partnering with Altos allows us to
scale this capability across India, helping organisations move from reactive
operations to intelligence-driven decision-making.”
YodaEdge
is on Altos workstations, which are powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing and
leverage the NVIDIA AI software stack, including NVIDIA CUDA, TensorRT, and
NVIDIA NIM microservices for local deployment of vision, language, and
generative AI models. This architecture enables Physical AI use cases, where AI
systems interact directly with machines, sensors, and physical environments in
real time.
As
deployments expand across manufacturing clusters, MSMEs, and critical infrastructure,
the Altos and Industry.AI partnership positions YodaEdge as a foundational AI
platform for India’s next phase of industrial growth.
Altos India has been focusing on AI-based
servers and workstations along with general-purpose compute nodes, enabling
enterprises, research institutions, and data-driven organisations to scale
advanced workloads with reliability and performance.
