NEXCOM to Launch Safety-Centric Humanoid Robot Controller
Single-Platform, Fully Modularized Embodied AI Development Kit Built on NVIDIA® Jetson Thor™
Taipei, Taiwan - August 20, 2025 - With the fast-paced progress of AI technology, the application of artificial intelligence has extended from Generative AI to Agentic AI, which possesses autonomous decision-making capabilities. Leaping forward to the next wave of trends, a real world where Physical AI and Embodied AI integrated across various vertical fields, including robots, autonomous vehicles, and smart factories is no longer a distant future.
This week at the Taiwan Automation Intelligence and Robot Show, NEXCOM Group (8234) unveiled the MARS400 T10, a humanoid robot controller developed with NVIDIA technology. Based on NVIDIA Jetson Thor, the MARS400 T10 modularly integrates AI computing, motion and robot control, and NEXCOM's in-house designed functional safety system ESC210 into a single robot control platform. This design addresses the notorious latency and module space requirements of traditional multi-platform robot architectures. The MARS400 T10 optimizes the overall machine space configuration and significantly enhances the real-time operational performance of humanoid robots, enabling smaller footprints, more refined human-like movements, and extended operating times.
Robot Functional Safety, AI Computing, and Motion Control - All Designed in One Single-Chip Modular Platform. Significantly Reducing Development Time for Manufacturers and Enhancing Operational Performance of Various Robot Types.
For robots to truly live alongside human environments like science fiction movies depict, safety is crucial. However, in nowadays robot systems, AI computing, motion control, and functional safety typically require independent processors and complex integration. This not only increases development difficulty and extends time-to-market but also results in unnatural human-like movements for humanoid robots due to integration delays between multiple software and hardware interfaces.
NEXCOM's integration of NVIDIA Jetson Thor, supports powerful computing capabilities of up to 2070 FP4 TFLOPS . Through modular design, it integrates NEXCOM's self-developed functional safety system ESC210, robot motion control system, and AI application software. The MARS400 T10 can be applied to various robot configurations, with a particular focus on humanoid robot development. Paired with NVIDIA Robotics full-stack CUDA-acceleration libraries and optimized AI models,it assists robot manufacturers in shortening development cycles and delivering safety-first robot products.
In 2024, NEXCOM obtained TÜV Rheinland functional safety certification, making it the only certified company providing modularized robotic functional safety solutions in Taiwan. Its products comply with international functional safety standards EN 61508 and EN ISO 13849-1. The functional safety solution, specifically designed for humanoid robots, includes a complete suite of functional safety master, functional safety modules, and I/O interfaces. In June this year at GTC Paris 2025, NEXCOM was officially invited to become a key member of the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab to help advance safety in the robotics industry. Functional safety will be a crucial and fundamental safety threshold for robots to seamlessly integrate into human daily life in the future.
Highlights of NEXCOM's Exhibition at the 2025 Taiwan Automation Intelligence and Robot Show
This year, NEXCOM's exhibition is themed "NEXCOM Empowerment, Driving AI Smart Manufacturing Leap Forward," emphasizing that AI development will enter practical application domains, shifting from "AI empowerment" to empowering application scenarios. At the exhibition, NEXCOM will showcase the group's years of strategic buildups in AI application fields across seven major themes, demonstrating how it provides customers with value-added AI hardware and software products and services. These themes include: " One Stop Shopping Robotmart - Functional Safety AI Humanoid Solution," "AI+ Real-Time Motion Control Solution," "AI+ Enterprise Battle Room 2.0 Solution," "AI+ Smart Medicine Cabinet Solution," "AI+ Industrial IoT Monitoring Solution," "AI+ Mobile Robot Augmented Reality Solution," and "AI+ Digital Twin Co-creation Solution."
NEXCOM will continue to deepen its collaboration with partners and consistently bring various innovative application products to the industry and human life.
