Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has partnered with Qualcomm to launch the TCS Innovation Lab in Bengaluru, India. The lab will focus on co-creating smart and scalable Edge AI solutions using Qualcomm platforms, aiming to help enterprises adopt software-driven approaches to make their systems more efficient and resilient. The facility will be part of the Bringing Life to Things Network Lab and will be equipped with a 5G private network and advanced IoT infrastructure, supporting rapid prototyping and large-scale deployment of customized solutions.
The collaboration between TCS and Qualcomm is aimed at bringing practical, real-time Edge AI solutions to industries that are rapidly evolving, such as healthcare, manufacturing, smart infrastructure, and surveillance. The lab will develop next-generation solutions for diverse applications, including intelligent medical devices, smart industrial handhelds, and advanced safety and surveillance systems. TCS will leverage its software-defined (SDx) approach along with Qualcomm’s Edge AI-enabled chips to create hardware-agnostic, secure, and adaptive systems.
The combination of TCS’s SDx capabilities and Qualcomm’s platforms will create adaptive, scalable, and sustainable industry solutions. The lab builds on earlier large-scale projects carried out jointly with Qualcomm in silicon design and IT services. The SDx capabilities will also enable smart networks with intelligent controls, device prognostics, and AI-enabled automation to support the shift to next-generation digital infrastructure.
The partnership between TCS and Qualcomm is expected to drive innovation and growth in various industries, providing cost-effective, efficient, scalable, and tailored solutions to enterprises. The TCS Innovation Lab will serve as a space where advanced AI and connectivity tackle real-world challenges, supporting the development of innovative solutions that can be rapidly prototyped and deployed. With its state-of-the-art infrastructure and expertise, the lab is poised to play a significant role in shaping the future of Edge AI and IoT solutions.
