A new initiative focused on indigenous, ultra-low-power, AI-enabled SoCs for edge computing in key sectors like healthcare and automotive. This aims to strengthen India’s global semiconductor position with high-performance, energy-efficient, and secure AI solutions.The “National Edge AI Silicon Initiative” is set to address India’s current gap in indigenous edge AI semiconductor capabilities. This initiative will drive the development of ultra-low-power, AI-enabled System-on-Chip (SoC) solutions. These chips, characterized by their high-performance, energy-efficient, and secure computing at the edge, are crucial for advancing sectors like healthcare, smart homes, industrial IoT, and automotive. Ultimately, this effort will significantly bolster India’s standing in the global semiconductor supply chain and foster self-reliance in cutting-edge AI hardware.
