AI is moving beyond the cloud and into the real world… At #GTC2026, it was clear that intelligence is shifting to the edge, where systems can perceive, decide and act in real time. In our latest blog, Ambarella’s Pietro Antonio Cicalese explains how this shift is enabling agentic, physical AI and changing how developers build across device, edge and cloud.

While cloud models keep getting bigger and more compute-hungry, edge AI is solving a very different problem. It has to operate within strict limits on power, memory, and latency, often in real time and without reliable connectivity. In our latest blog, Ambarella’s Pietro Antonio Cicalese explains how this is shaping a new kind of AI system. Instead of relying on a single large model, edge AI is built from multiple smaller, purpose-trained models working together. Detection, tracking, classification, and even vision-language reasoning can now run directly on the device. What matters here isn’t scale, but how well these models are composed and coordinated. That’s what enables real-time decision making in physical environments, from factory floors to vehicles, cameras, and robots.

Where is edge AI creating measurable value today, and what determines whether robotics systems scale beyond pilots? At Embedded Vision Summit, Ambarella’s Chief Architect Bob Kunz joins the plenary panel “Edge AI and Vision in Robotics: From Benchmarks to Fleet-Scale Reality.” While Edge AI can take robots to the point of a compelling demo, real-world deployment demands the hard work that comes after. From sensing and compute trade-offs to data, foundation models, and real-world safety, the session looks at what it really takes to go from 10 robots to 1,000+.

Edge AI development is moving beyond cloud-first abstractions. At Embedded Vision Summit, Ambarella’s Pietro Antonio Cicalese will present “Edge-First Coding Agents: Trustworthy Agentic Development for Real Devices.” As systems become more autonomous, the challenge is no longer just building models, but building agentic workflows that are reliable under real-world constraints like privacy, bandwidth, and real-time execution. The session explores how coding agents can be rethought from the edge outward, separating reasoning from execution, validating actions against device behavior, and enabling inspectable, production-ready systems. Pietro will also show how Ambarella’s Cooper Developer Platform unifies hardware and software bring-up with agentic blueprints that turn intent into deployable edge workflows.

“The ChatGPT moment for physical AI is here.” Jensen Huang’s GTC keynote captured what we are seeing across the industry: AI is shifting from cloud-first architectures to intelligence at the edge. In our latest blog, Ambarella's Pietro Antonio Cicalese outlines the next phase. Edge AI is moving beyond perception. Devices are now reasoning, planning, and acting in real time. This is the rise of agentic, physical AI. This shift is redefining how developers build and deploy, with greater focus on on-device decision-making, vision-language model orchestration, and distributed architectures spanning device, near-edge, and cloud. From security to automotive to industrial, edge AI is becoming purposeful.

Ambarella was featured by SecurityInformed.com/SourceSecurity.com following #ISCWest, highlighting our vision for powering the edge with AI chips. As AI continues to evolve, intelligence is moving closer to where data is created at the edge, which enables faster, more efficient decision-making. From Natural Language technology that allows users to search for specific objects or abstract scenes using simple prompts, to “agentic” programming for no-code automated workflows and media signing to verify video integrity, Ambarella is addressing modern security challenges and helping combat AI-generated deepfakes.

Edge Innovation in Action: from #ew26 to #ISCWest2026! Although Nuremberg and Las Vegas are 5,300 miles apart, the challenge remains the same: making AI work where it matters. In March, we connected with developers, partners, and system architects at two major events. These conversations advance progress by sharing challenges, exchanging ideas, and turning innovation into reality. Our demos in robotics, industrial automation, and security showcased how Edge AI performs in real-world conditions where failure isn’t an option. From Europe to the U.S., we highlighted how Ambarella delivers high-performance, ultra-efficient AI at the edge across industries.
