MICROIP Leads Edge AI Deployment at CES 2026
At CES 2026, the world's leading consumer and enterprise technology event, MICROIP Inc. (Emerging Stock Board: 7796), a Taiwan-based provider of ASIC design services and AI software solutions, is showcasing its latest advancements at the AI Applications Pavilion. The company is presenting its CAPS (Cross-Platform AI Powered Solutions) architecture and highlighting AIVO (AI Vision Operation), a flagship Edge AI platform that has already entered commercial deployment.Through a software-defined approach, MICROIP demonstrates how AI applications can be deployed across global environments with lower barriers to entry and higher operational efficiency - bridging the gap between proof-of-concept and real-world deployment.From Technology Demonstration to Operational AIDr. James Yang, Chairman of MICROIP, stated: "CES is not just a venue for showcasing technology—it is where AI must prove its real-world value. AIVO was not designed to maximize model benchmarks or raw hardware performance, but to address real deployment constraints in transportation security, smart agriculture, and autonomous systems, including heterogeneous network conditions, limited edge compute resources, and long-term operational costs.By starting from these real-world constraints, MICROIP has built AIVO as an Edge AI platform that can be deployed, operated, and maintained over time - allowing AI to become part of daily operations rather than remaining at the proof-of-concept stage."CES 2026 Focus: Turning Edge AI into Operational CapabilityCAPS is MICROIP's  cross-platform AI software design framework, developed to help customers define AI systems that are deployable and maintainable in production environments. At CES 2026, MICROIP presents AIVO as a reference implementation of CAPS, demonstrating how Edge AI evolves from pilot projects into scalable, operational systems.Positioned as the deployment-focused pillar within the CAPS architecture, AIVO addresses two of the most persistent challenges in Edge AI: bandwidth constraints and multi-task processing at the edge.Distributed Master–Client Architecture for Large-Scale Edge DeploymentTo support geographically distributed and large-scale deployments, AIVO adopts a master–client distributed architecture. Real-time inference is performed locally on edge devices, while system management and decision logic are centralized at the host level.Instead of streaming raw video data, edge nodes transmit only structured inference results and metadata. This design significantly reduces bandwidth requirements and allows the system to maintain centralized oversight and real-time responsiveness - even in 4G/5G or unstable network environments.Real-Time Heterogeneous Multi-Tasking at the EdgeAIVO integrates a dynamic resource scheduling mechanism that enables multiple AI models to run concurrently on a single hardware platform. In security scenarios, object detection, behavior analysis, and environmental sensing models can operate in parallel, with compute resources allocated dynamically based on task priority.This ensures that mission-critical events are processed and responded to in real time, even under constrained edge compute conditions.Proven Edge AI Applications Across Transportation, Agriculture, and Autonomous SystemsLeveraging its system architecture, AIVO has completed multiple international field validations and is now focused on high-reliability application domains worldwide:Transportation Security: AIVO is being rolled out across metro systems, railways, buses, commercial aviation, and airport environments. Edge-based AI enables real-time detection of anomalous behavior, with alerts integrated into control centers or government security systems—enhancing response capability without increasing manpower requirements.Smart Agriculture: Addressing labor shortages and an aging workforce in U.S. agriculture, AIVO uses computer vision to monitor livestock health and environmental conditions. Expert knowledge from experienced farmers is encoded into AI models, while optimized system design ensures stable operation under low-power and limited-network farm environments.AI Drones and Robotics: For infrastructure inspection and disaster response, AIVO strengthens on-device autonomy. Even in GPS-denied or connectivity-limited conditions, drones and robots can perform real-time object tracking and dynamic obstacle avoidance, expanding the use of autonomous systems in high-risk scenarios.CAPS Ecosystem: Software-Driven Hardware Through Global PartnershipsDr. Yang emphasized that CAPS represents MICROIP's holistic vision for AI software design services:"Through vertical integration of AIVO as the deployment platform, XEdgAI as the system development platform, and CATS as our custom ASIC service, we establish a core advantage where software defines hardware specifications and real-world applications validate design direction."To accelerate global adoption of this model, MICROIP announced at CES 2026 strategic partnerships with Axelera AI (Europe), Axiomtek, Lex System, and U.S.-based Physical AI and robotics integration startup Universal AI Services, forming an international Edge AI alliance.Through CAPS' cross-platform compatibility, MICROIP has integrated mainstream AI chip platforms with industrial-grade hardware to deliver end-to-end, software-defined hardware Edge AI solutions. This strengthens MICROIP's technical leadership within the Edge AI ecosystem and enables customers worldwide to deploy high-performance, low-power AI systems across transportation, agriculture, and robotics applications.CES 2026 Exhibition Information – Next-Generation Edge AI Solutions,Dates: January 6–9, 2026;Location: Las Vegas, USA; Hall: North Hall;Booth: #9277.For more information on MICROIP, please visit MICROIP website.

The initiative began in 2025 under the name "Seoul Innovation Forum," when five national pavilions-Japan, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the Republic of Korea (Seoul)-collaborated for the first time. As the inaugural event built on solidarity among Eureka Park-participating countries at CES, the Seoul Innovation Forum was considered particularly meaningful. It brought together key startup ecosystem players from each country to explore practical collaboration measures, earning positive evaluations as a successful first step toward enhancing competitiveness as global startups.A "national pavilion" refers to an exhibition pavilion established and operated by a national institution participating in CES.Building on this success, the event has been rebranded as the "Global Innovation Forum" starting in 2026 to provide participating startups with more stable and expanded opportunities for global collaboration. The highlight of the forum, the IR Pitching Competition, has been significantly strengthened through an enhanced judging panel. In addition to promoting technology through global media, the competition now includes rigorous business evaluations by leading global venture capital firms. Through this approach, participating companies are expected to gain opportunities for accelerated growth, expand brand awareness, and attract practical investment and market validation in a single venue.The 2026 Global Innovation Forum will be held in collaboration with startup support organizations from seven countries. The event is jointly supported by the host organization, Seoul Business Agency (SBA) of the Republic of Korea, Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA), Switzerland Global Enterprise (S-GE), Israel Economic and Trade Office, Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO), Québec Government Office of Canada, and Business France, raising expectations for a successful outcome.The forum will open with an IR pitching competition featuring startups selected by each participating country. The competition serves as a core program that draws strong attention from investors, media, and industry stakeholders, as promising startups carefully selected by national startup support organizations present their technologies and business models on the global stage. Each participating country-the Republic of Korea, Taiwan, Switzerland, Israel, Japan, Canada, and France-will showcase its leading startups before global investors and media, providing opportunities to expand international partnerships. Through this IR pitching competition, which combines media reach with the expertise of venture capital firms, participating companies are expected to achieve tangible outcomes beyond simple promotion, including market validation and investment connections.As the centerpiece of the forum, the IR pitching competition will serve as a platform for outstanding startups from seven countries, including Korea, Japan, and France, to demonstrate their value on the global stage. This platform, where national innovation capabilities converge, will act as a bridgehead for expanding international partnerships. Through an advanced evaluation process involving both media and venture capital firms, participating companies are expected to achieve meaningful results in brand recognition and capital linkage simultaneously.Award-winning companies that demonstrate innovative technologies and vision during the competition will receive prize money and trophies according to their respective award categories. The awards are divided into the Grand Award (first place), Scale-up Award (second place), and Impact Award (third place), with prize money of USD 3,000, USD 2,000, and USD 1,000, respectively.In addition, the forum will host panel discussions featuring representatives from each participating country, creating a knowledge-sharing platform to discuss the latest trends and support know-how in the global startup ecosystem. This is expected to go beyond individual company scale-up efforts and serve as an opportunity to strengthen policy alignment among countries. The networking session, where participants can interact freely, will be a key element in turning forum participation into tangible business outcomes. The teamwork among media, venture capital firms, startups, and startup support organizations is expected to open new opportunities for market entry for participating startups.Hyunwoo Kim, President and CEO of the Seoul Business Agency, presented his vision for the forum, stating that SBA aims to grow the event into a representative collaboration model that connects the global startup ecosystem into one through CES.
