Following their U.S. debut at MDEX in Detroit, the companies are showcasing integrated rugged edge AI concepts at COMPUTEX 2026 and discussing potential future collaboration opportunities in aerial and embedded AI systems.

Blaize Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: BZAI, Nasdaq: BZAIW) ("Blaize"), a leader in programmable, energy-efficient edge AI computing, and Winmate Inc., a publicly traded provider of rugged computing and industrial mobility solutions based in Taiwan ("Winmate"), today announced they will jointly demonstrate and co-present integrated rugged edge AI solutions at COMPUTEX 2026 (June 2-5, Taipei).

The co-presence reflects ongoing collaboration efforts between the companies. After debuting their joint solutions on the U.S. stage at the Michigan Defense Expo (MDEX) in Detroit, the partners now bring their work to the international stage at one of the world's largest AI exhibitions, highlighting ongoing technical and ecosystem collaboration activities.

From a signed agreement to fielded solutions

On-site AI belongs at the edge, in rugged systems that operate in environments with limited connectivity and unforgiving conditions. At COMPUTEX, Blaize and Winmate will show how Blaize's programmable GSP-based AI acceleration, integrated into Winmate's rugged platforms, delivers real-time inference where it is needed most, whether in unmanned systems, patrol vehicles, field operations, or industrial mobility platforms.

The companies are exploring potential solution architectures and evaluating opportunities across selected industrial and rugged computing markets. The companies are focused first on viable, scalable business models, with off-the-shelf integration paths and ODM opportunities for Blaize GSP integration into Winmate platforms. Commercial structures, if any, would be determined separately under future agreements.

A next-generation aerial robotics system

Blaize and Winmate are evaluating potential applications involving ruggedized aerial and embedded AI platforms. Winmate selected Blaize following a technical evaluation, qualifying the Blaize architecture for its power efficiency, thermal performance, and compact, single-chip form factor, the characteristics that determine whether AI can be deployed on airborne platforms at all. The companies may provide additional updates as technical evaluations and collaboration activities progress.

From the leaders

"Edge AI is moving out of the data center and into the real world, where latency, reliability, and power efficiency decide what is possible," said Dinakar Munagala, CEO of Blaize. "COMPUTEX is the global stage to show what we expect our partnership with Winmate will deliver in practice. Our chips were built to run AI inside the most demanding rugged systems, and that is exactly what we are putting in front of customers and partners in Taipei."

"We evaluate AI technology against the hardest requirements our customers face, and Blaize's technology has demonstrated promising characteristics for selected rugged edge AI use cases under evaluation by Winmate," said Ken Lu, Chairman and CEO of Winmate. "Winmate continues evaluating technologies that may enhance edge AI capabilities in rugged computing environments. Co-presenting at COMPUTEX reflects how far this partnership has come and where it is heading."

Joint demonstrations at COMPUTEX will highlight:

Rugged edge AI systems for industrial and mission-critical operations
Low-latency AI inference that runs independently of persistent cloud connectivity
Unmanned and aerial system applications enabled by onboard embedded AI
Field-based use cases across mission-critical, transportation, maritime, and industrial environments
Integrated rugged hardware and AI architectures optimized for durability, thermal efficiency, and low-power operation
During COMPUTEX, the companies will engage customers, ecosystem partners, and media across the Asia-Pacific and global markets to explore opportunities to expand deployable AI systems, and they welcome partners with projects requiring joint system design.

Any future commercial products, integrations, or deployments referenced herein remain subject to technical validation, commercial agreement, regulatory considerations, and market conditions.
