Foxconn Showcases Cutting-Edge AI Developments at NVIDIA GTC 2025
On March 19, 2025, the Hon Hai Technology Group, better known as Foxconn, made significant waves at the prestigious NVIDIA GTC 2025 conference held in San Jose, California. The event has historically been a platform for pioneering advancements in artificial intelligence, and Foxconn's presentation served to further establish its reputation as a leader in the tech industry. The company unveiled an array of innovations, including progress in humanoid robotics, advanced AI infrastructure, and digital twin technologies that are set to revolutionize future factories.
A Landmark Presentation
Foxconn is not just the world's largest electronics manufacturer; it also aims to redefine expectations in AI deployment across various sectors such as smart cities, automotive technologies, and intelligent manufacturing. Leading a delegation of over 70 engineers and executives, Foxconn's Chairman Young Liu emphasized their unwavering commitment to harnessing AI's potential to innovate existing infrastructures.
Liu stated, “You know Foxconn as the largest manufacturer of cutting-edge AI servers working with the world’s fastest superchips. We are doing more than that. Here at the GTC, we are showcasing how Tier-1 excellence extends into Smart City initiatives, Smart Manufacturing capabilities, and Smart Electric Vehicles.” Through performances and demonstrations across six sessions, Foxconn displayed how AI can enable advancements in autonomous driving, healthcare, and manufacturing.
The Next-Generation Server Rack
Among the highlights of Foxconn’s exhibit was the next-generation GB300 NVL72 server rack, developed in collaboration with NVIDIA. This model epitomizes the cutting-edge AI infrastructure necessary for training and inferring large language models (LLMs) with trillions of parameters. The GB300 series is designed to act as a powerful computation engine for AI factories, demonstrating the seamless performance Foxconn aims to achieve in partnership with NVIDIA.
The rigorous technological backdrop is enhanced by the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, ensuring optimal processing efficiencies, while Foxconn’s subsidiary, Ingrasys, adds advanced liquid cooling solutions that support effective management of server operations. The goal is not only to maximize performance but also to create a sustainable ecosystem of AI technology that remains cost-effective in the long run.
Transforming Factory Operations
Foxconn has positioned itself at the forefront of intelligent manufacturing globally by integrating NVIDIA AI solutions across its production lines. This integration includes the NVIDIA AI blueprint for Video Search and Summary, which facilitates operational and safety monitoring. These developments were showcased live throughout the exhibition space, highlighting real-time factory layout simulations and fleet operations that actively exhibit how AI can drive real-world scenarios.
In one particular GTC session titled, “Using NVIDIA Omniverse for Smart Factory Design - The Fii Omniverse Digital Twin Project on the NVIDIA GB200 Grace Blackwell Superchip Production Line,” the team illustrated how Foxconn’s sustainable showcase plants could be replicated and exported to industry partners aiming to scale up future AI factories.
The Role of Robotics
In a special zone dedicated to robotics, Foxconn introduced a hybrid robot designed to meet semiconductor and automation requirements through advanced image recognition and precise mobility. This next-gen robot is part of Foxconn's multi-faceted approach toward upgrading its workforce with AI companions; sessions like “Reinventing Intelligent Manufacturing: How Foxconn Builds and Deploys an AI Workforce” were dedicated to discussing agent-based AI and physical AI applications that propel initiatives like Factory GPT and embodied intelligence robots.
One of the standout innovations presented was Nurabot, a collaborative caregiving robot poised to enhance patient workflows and improve healthcare delivery. This technology is expected to roll out in partner hospitals in Taiwan within the year, showcasing the practical applications of AI in health sectors.
As part of the GTC, Foxconn also previewed the first Digital Twin of a bustling hospital ward in Taiwan, which aims to revolutionize patient care and operational efficiency through advanced robotics and AI integrations. Foxconn’s commitment to smart healthcare illustrates their holistic perspective on AI's impact across various industries.
A Vision for the Future
Foxconn’s presence at GTC 2025 is not merely about showcasing their current capabilities; it also centers on the future. The session titled “From Open Source to Frontier AI: Building, Customizing, and Expanding Foundation Models” revealed FoxBrain, the first large language model tailored for Traditional Chinese, which promises to be a key driver for the evolution of Foxconn's Smart Manufacturing, Smart EV, and Smart City platforms.
For visitors attending GTC, engaging and interactive experiences await, including meeting a cool avatar in the On-Demand session “Enhancing Traffic Safety with GenAI, Metropolis, and NVIDIA Omniverse” and grabbing unique chocolate tokens at their exhibit booth. The promise of innovation and collaboration at this year's GTC sets the stage for a future where AI and robotics integrate seamlessly into everyday life.
