 AI Enters the Operational Era: Stability and O&M Become Key to Enterprise Transformation

"AI development has entered a critical stage, moving from technical proof-of-concept to actual operations," stated Chairman Dr. James Yang of MICROIP. "The focus of competition is no longer just on models and computing power performance, but on whether the system can operate stably in the long term and integrate into daily corporate workflows. After adopting AI, enterprises place greater emphasis on operations and maintenance (O&M) efficiency and adjustment flexibility. MICROIP chose to establish an R&D center in Kaohsiung precisely to be close to the industry front lines, ensuring the AI software design platform becomes a core tool that enterprises can use long-term to continuously create value."

MICROIP Joins Asia New Bay Area Ecosystem; Government-Industry-Academia Collaboration Accelerates Technology Deployment

As Kaohsiung actively builds AI and smart application clusters, MICROIP will effectively connect government resources, academic research, and field verification through its Asia New Bay Area R&D Center to accelerate the speed of technology deployment. MICROIP emphasized that it will continue to strengthen cross-platform hardware and software integration capabilities to ensure the AI software design platform can run stably across different devices and computing architectures.

By accumulating replicable field experience and engineering capabilities in the Asia New Bay Area, MICROIP aims to steadily expand sustainable technical service models, laying a solid foundation for the company's medium-to-long-term operational development.

Over 990 Square Meters Implementation Base: One-Stop Service from Model R&D to Field Verification

The MICROIP Kaohsiung R&D Center spans over 990 square meters (approx. 300 pings) and features an AI server room, application laboratories, and field verification spaces. The center will be staffed by a team of AI R&D and on-site technical support engineers, positioning itself as a practical implementation base that "connects technology with application." It is dedicated to transforming AI models into industrial-grade systems that are maintainable and scalable.

Regarding application layout, MICROIP will leverage its core advantage of "Software-Driven Hardware," covering the following areas:

• Core Applications: Smart Manufacturing and Factory Automation.

• Extended Fields: Transportation, Smart Ports, Logistics Management, and Security & Surveillance.

• Forward-Looking Technologies: Smart Agriculture, as well as the deployment of drones and AI robots for inspection, inventory, and real-time environmental understanding.
