EdgeCortix Co., Ltd.
EdgeCortix, one of Japan’s leading innovation companies, announces participation at the Defense Equipment Agency booth at Asia’s largest “Singapore Airshow 2024”
……
EdgeCortix Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Founder and CEO: Sakyasingha Dasgupta; hereinafter referred to as EdgeCortix and the Company), which develops and designs fabless semiconductors for edge AI originating in Japan, will start operations from February 20, 2024. At “Singapore Airshow 2024” (hereinafter referred to as “Singapore Airshow”), one of the largest air shows in Asia, to be held on the 25th, the Defense Equipment Agency will be selected as a
groundbreaking edge AI startup representing innovation in Japanese aviation and defense. We have announced that we will be exhibiting at our booth.
The Singapore Airshow is one of the world’s largest and most influential international exhibitions, and the largest aviation trade show in Asia, attracting up to 50,000 visitors. This year, more than 1,000 companies from 50 countries are scheduled to exhibit.
SAKURA-I (https://www.edgecortix.com/ja/products/sakura), the main product of Edgecortix (https://www.edgecortix.com/ja/), will be on display at the Defense Equipment Agency booth. It will be introduced as one of Japan’s most influential innovations. SAKURA-I delivers high computational efficiency and low latency for artificial intelligence (AI) inference workloads where data is collected and mission-critical decisions need to be made at the “edge,” far from the data center. This is the next generation dedicated coprocessor. SAKURA-I delivers orders of magnitude better energy efficiency and processing speed than traditional semiconductors (such as GPUs and CPUs), while
significantly reducing operating costs for end users.

Civil transportation and aviation, as well as international defense and aerospace, are increasingly turning to AI solutions. It is predicted that important AI tasks in these fields will inevitably be implemented at the “edge” in the future.
Sakyasingha Dasgupta, Founder and CEO of Edgecortics, said: “With its fast computation speed and superior power efficiency in a small form factor system, EdgeCortix SAKURA-I has proven to be an essential tool for edge computing in defense and aerospace. We predict that the market will increasingly become dominated by software-driven hardware
solutions ( https://www.edgecortix.com/en/press-releases/edgecortix-predicts-next-gen-ai-will-start-to-revolutionize -business-in-2024) We are honored to be able to introduce our solutions as one of the leading companies representing Japanese innovation at the Defense Equipment Agency booth.”
The Defense Equipment Agency says: Through our exhibition at the Singapore Air Show 2024, the public and private sectors, including Edge Cortics, will work together to disseminate our advanced technological capabilities and promote the transfer of defense equipment. ”
