Over the past three years, DEEPX has demonstrated both its technological innovation and market competitiveness on the global stage.

AtCES 2024, DEEPX became thefirst AI semiconductor companyto achieve atriple crown, winningInnovation Awards in the Robotics, Embedded Technology, and Hardware Components categorieswith its first-generation AI chipset, theDX-M1.

At CES 2025, theConsumer Technology Association (CTA)officially recognized DEEPX as a"Must-See Company."More than16,000 visitorsattended DEEPX's exhibition booth to experience how its ultra-low-power, high-performance AI semiconductors serve as real-world enablers of intelligent and democratized industrial transformation.

AtCES 2026, DEEPX once again received Innovation Awards in theComputer HardwareandEmbedded Technologycategories — recognition that its AI semiconductors go far beyond performance metrics to deliverpractical, scalable technology capable of enabling large-scale AI deployment in real industrial environments.

This year's CES marks a major turning point, asDEEPX-powered partner productsare now beginning to deliver tangible market results. The most notable example isSixfab's ALPON X5,which integratesDEEPX's DX-M1and wonthe CES Best of Innovation award.This achievement symbolizes the completion of a'Chain of Innovation'— where the technology that wonCES Innovation Awards in 2024has now evolved to power aglobal partner's Best of Innovation product in 2026.

TheALPON X5is recognized as atransitional solution toward the AI-6G eraand a cornerstone for next-generationintelligent network infrastructure.As anon-device AI gateway, it performs real-time data processing and analysis directly at the edge — without cloud dependency — enabling ultra-low-latency and intelligent control across industrial, urban, and transportation systems. This capability is drawing attention as akey enabler of the forthcoming'AI 6G RAN (Radio Access Network)'architecture, where AI is directly integrated into network nodes and base stations.

Headquartered in the United States,Sixfabis a leadingIoT and edge computingcompany that provides AI gateways and edge modules based onsingle-board computers (SBCs)such asRaspberry PiandOrange Pi, earning the trust of developer communities worldwide.

The award-winningALPON X5featuresDEEPX's ultra-low-power AI semiconductor DX-M1, which deliversover 10 times greater power efficiency than GPUswhile performing high-precision AI inference atless than 5 watts. Maintaining GPU-level accuracy with dramatically lower heat generation and cost, it enablesreliable AI operations even in power-constrained industrial and infrastructure environments.

TheCES judging panelpraised the ALPON X5 as a"realistic and scalable AI infrastructure model,"describing it as anext-generation on-device AI gatewaythat can replace cloud-centric AI architectures. The product has been highlighted as acore platformthat enablesreal-time data processing and autonomous perceptioninsmart factories, smart retail, smart cities, and mobility applications.

Through this collaboration,DEEPX and Sixfabplan to establish ajoint reference platformin the globalindustrial AI gateway market.Together, the two companies aim to accelerate themainstream adoption of energy-efficient and sustainable AI infrastructureacross diverse industries.

AtCES 2026(January 6–9, Las Vegas), DEEPX willunveil its award-winning products alongside Sixfab's Best of Innovation ALPON X5to global audiences for the first time. DEEPX will also host the newly establishedCES Foundry session, where it will present — together with global partners — itsindustrial vision and technological roadmap for the'Physical AI'era.

Additionally, DEEPX will hold anon-site media briefingto unveil its next-generation ultra-low-power AI semiconductors and global ecosystem strategy for establishing a new industry standard foron-device AI.

Okan Saracoglu, Vice President ofSixfab, commented:

"Winning CES's Best of Innovation award marks the official recognition of Sixfab's pursuit of practical AI innovation. DEEPX's DX-M1 chip has turned our long-standing vision of ultra-efficient, high-performance edge computing into reality. With ALPON X5, customers worldwide can now build more efficient and sustainable AI infrastructure."

Lokwon Kim, CEO ofDEEPX, stated:

"This award is especially meaningful because it demonstrates that DEEPX's technology extends beyond the semiconductor itself — it is powering our customers'and partners'products, together setting a new global benchmark for innovation. The fact that the DX-M1, which won CES Innovation Awards in 2024, has now powered a partner's Best of Innovation product in 2026 is a symbolic testament to the momentum of our'Physical AI'ecosystem. We will continue to strengthen our leadership to ensure that AI is deployed more efficiently, responsibly, and sustainably around the world."
