Aetina Corporation, a leading provider of advanced Edge AI solutions and an Elite Partner in the NVIDIA Jetson ecosystem, today announced that it has entered into a distribution partnership with Digital Media Professionals Inc. (DMP) in Japan. Through this agreement, DMP will provide sales and technical support for Aetina’s portfolio of high-performance edge AI platforms and systems powered by NVIDIA AI Infrastructure in the Japanese market.
This collaboration brings together DMP’s low-power, real-time edge AI camera SoC “ Di1” and Aetina’s scalable GPU computing systems built on NVIDIA Jetson, enabling a hybrid AI architecture that supports both on-sensor intelligence and high-performance model execution on the edge. The collaboration is further strengthened by Aetina's proven customization expertise, industrial experience, and comprehensive know-how in software frameworks and toolchains to enable seamless sensor-to-system integration, optimizing clients' time-to-market deployment.
Together, this architecture is designed to address the growing demand for sensing, perception, decision-making, and on-device learning required in next-generation robotics, mobility systems, smart monitoring, and autonomous edge environments.
Delivering Scalable Hybrid Edge AI
As AI workloads become more distributed across device, edge, and server layers, enterprises increasingly require architectures that can dynamically allocate compute based on latency, power, and model complexity considerations. The combined solution enables exactly this:
| Layer | System Role | Strengths | Typical Functions |
| Edge-near Sensor | DMP Di1 | Ultra-low-power, always-on operation | Real-time inference, environment monitoring, ViT/VLM perception, 3D stereo vision |
| Edge Compute / Control Layer | Aetina Platforms built on NVIDIA Jetson modules | High-density compute, model retraining, task orchestration | Local LLM summarization, route optimization (SLAM), integrated control, on-device learning |
By enabling inference-where-it-matters and learn-where-it-scales, the joint architecture supports systems that are not only reactive, but also adaptive and continuously improving — a foundational requirement for Physical AI and autonomous machine intelligence.
Target Markets and Deployment Scenarios
The partnership between Aetina and DMP opens new opportunities to advance hybrid edge AI deployment across key verticals such as robotics, smart mobility, industrial automation, and intelligent surveillance.
● Robotics and Smart Mobility
In autonomous mobile robots (AMR), automated guided vehicles (AGV), and marine navigation systems, the combination of DMP’s Di1 SoC and Aetina’s NVIDIA Jetson platforms enables real-time situational awareness, obstacle detection, and intelligent route optimization through simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technologies.
● Smart Surveillance
Di1 performs on-sensor event recognition and anomaly detection, while Aetina’s high-performance edge systems utilize local large language models (LLMs) to interpret visual data, generate contextual summaries, and automatically issue alerts—all processed locally to enhance data privacy and minimize latency.
● Industrial Automation and Logistics
The hybrid architecture supports next-generation picking and assembly robots. Di1 conducts high-speed object recognition and pose estimation, while Aetina’s platforms handle complex motion coordination, workflow integration, and adaptive decision-making, enabling factories and warehouses to operate with greater precision, efficiency, and autonomy.
Advancing Edge AI Adoption in Japan
Aetina and DMP have collaborated to illustrate multiple real-world deployment scenarios across customer environments. By formalizing this distributor relationship, Aetina strengthens its ability to support:
- Commercial AI systems at scale
- Customization and system integration needs
- Lifecycle continuity from development to mass production
“Japan is a priority market for applied edge AI and advanced robotics. By aligning Aetina’s scalable systems powered by NVIDIA Jetson and GPU computing platforms with DMP’s Di1 edge sensing capabilities, we are enabling customers to implement distributed, intelligent, and continuously learning AI systems that bring faster, safer, and smarter decision-making to the edge.”
