Mobiliint said on the 28th that it will participate in four projects under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy's "K-On-Device AI Semiconductor Technology Development Project." Together with LG Electronics, Doosan Robotics, and Daedong, Mobiliint has begun developing on-device AI semiconductor technology for robots and home appliances.
Mobiliint will lead the AI semiconductor development subprojects for LG Electronics' humanoid-related project. It will also lead the AI semiconductor development subproject for Doosan Robotics' collaborative robot-related project and the AI semiconductor development subproject for Daedong's unmanned farm work robot-related project.
Mobiliint will participate as a joint research and development institution in the AI home project it is carrying out with LG Electronics. Accordingly, Mobiliint will take on the role of participating in multiple government projects and developing on-device AI semiconductors for robots and home appliances together with demand-side companies.
The "K-On-Device AI Semiconductor Technology Development Project" is a national research and development program based on cooperation between domestic AI semiconductor companies and demand-side companies. The project covers the development and demonstration of semiconductors for products across industries, and aims to secure a foundation for technologies with future commercialization potential by linking them to product applications at demand-side companies.
To implement AI functions in robots and home appliances that require rapid on-site responses or face power and cost constraints, it is necessary to consider not only computational performance but also power consumption, product operating environments, and software application conditions. Through this project, Mobiliint will pursue the development of AI semiconductors tailored to the requirements of each industry and product.
In its joint humanoid project with LG Electronics, Mobiliint will develop an on-device AI accelerator. The humanoid aims to support the processing of AI computations inside the device so it can perceive and judge its surroundings while operating in everyday spaces.
In Doosan Robotics' collaborative robot project, Mobiliint will develop AI semiconductors and a software development kit (SDK) for next-generation collaborative robots. It also plans to establish both the semiconductor and the development environment for practical use at the same time, while verifying the potential for integration with actual robot platforms.
Mobiliint is participating in Daedong's unmanned farm work robot project. In this project, Mobiliint will be responsible for AI semiconductor development and establishing the development environment. Mobiliint is pursuing related technology development with the goal of enabling robot implementations of AI functions for environmental recognition and autonomous work around agricultural sites.
Mobiliint CEO Shin Dong-joo said the company will pursue AI semiconductor development tailored to demand-side companies' product requirements through the four projects. He added that the company aims to move on to actual device demonstration and commercialization, and to connect that to adoption by customer products. He also said the company plans to expand the use of domestic NPUs into various AI services and industrial sites.
On the 22nd, Mobiliint obtained Korea Testing & Certification's (TTA) "AI Accelerator TTA Verified" certification with its AI accelerator "MLA100," which is equipped with its own NPU, ARIES.
