Arrow Electronics and Qualcomm Collab for Edge, AI Adoption
NUREMBERG, Germany, May 24, 2023 — Arrow Electronics and Qualcomm Technologies have expanded their strategic collaboration by establishing the Edge Labs Center of Excellence. Edge Labs, an Arrow Center of Excellence, will help customers accelerate the development of connected intelligent edge devices based on solutions from Qualcomm Technologies.
Edge and AI solution development is becoming increasingly challenging to customers due to several factors such as lack of prior experience, limited access to high-performance edge and AI chipsets, supply chain complexity, and fledgling ecosystem. Edge Labs aims to help innovators navigate these challenges while increasing the adoption of Edge AI using solutions from Qualcomm Technologies across security, safety, health care, robotics, cameras, displays, optical inspection, and other IoT applications.
Edge Labs will have a dedicated solution architect and engineering team to develop application-specific solutions, including training sales and field application engineers, specifically on Qualcomm Technologies’ products. It will also offer design services to enable lower risk and faster time to market for customers through eInfochips, an Arrow company.
The first product from the Edge Labs initiative, the Aikri 42x chip, was demonstrated at Embedded World conference in Nuremberg, Germany, in March.
