Bringing AI to the edge
Our Karman platform makes it easy to embed AI in edge devices.
Operating on a custom NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano, Karman makes data available for accelerated computing at the edge and trains models locally.
The future of infrastructure is AI-embedded.
We’re transforming the way industries operate, starting with the electric grid, by unlocking new data sources and bringing AI capabilities from the cloud to devices.
Devices are designed and tested at our innovation lab in Ann Arbor, MI
Utilidata captures robust, high-quality data at the meter to help utilities make smarter real-time decisions.
We partnered with NVIDIA, the world leader in accelerated computing and AI, to enable a connected grid that delivers clean and reliable energy.
“To have an intelligent grid, you first have to have a software-defined smart grid. We’re working together with Utilidata on AI meters – and working with SCE and Portland General – in deploying AI computers integrated into the grid.”
Jensen Huang, CEO, NVIDIA
“By combining Utilidata’s extensive knowledge of distributed AI with Aclara’s decades of experience providing industry-leading hardware, we’re now able to bring new, innovative, interoperable solutions to our customers, starting with smart meters.”
Erik Christian, Division President, Grid Automation, Hubbell
“Through our new collaboration with Utilidata and NVIDIA, we can bring our industry advantage, redefine energy management and help create a more digitized, decentralized, and sustainable energy ecosystem.”
Khalid Behairy, AI Practice Leader for Power, Utilities and Renewables, Deloitte
"We are excited to partner with Utilidata to manufacture their first GPU-based module for the electric industry…this AI at the edge technique is compact and robust, reaching well beyond the smart grid. We see great potential to bring the same technology to other markets – wherever there is high frequency electric waveform data."
Ween Niu, General Manager, North America/Canada, Advantech
“Partnering with Utilidata allows us to combine their energy and grid expertise with our decades of experience in conducting large scale research projects, data collection, and deployments that lead to a safer, more efficient, and equitable transportation and mobility future.”
Jim Sayer, University of Michigan Transportation Institute
“Coupling Utilidata’s innovative platform and smart chip technology with Brooks’ focus on safe and reliable products provides the optimal solution for a dynamically changing electrical grid.”
Robert Kiessling, Brooks Utility Products national marketing manager
“PGE recognizes the urgent need for innovation at the grid edge as we transition to a clean energy future. Investing in new technologies for the grid is a key strategy for PGE to achieve its climate goals and provide customers with clean, affordable, and resilient energy.”
Ananth Sundaram, Portland General Electric
Our advisory board is a cross-sector consortium dedicated to fundamentally rethinking intelligence at the edge.
