LOS ANGELES, Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AINewsWire: Artificial intelligence and edge computing are increasingly recognized as foundational technologies for modern defense and autonomous systems. Experts note that defense operations must shift “from traditional data centers to high-performance edge computing” in order to “provide a crucial tactical advantage” by enabling real-time data processing and decision-making at the operational edge. Another report explains that Edge AI “processes data locally to speed response time and enable real-time decision-making,” while reducing dependence on centralized cloud systems and minimizing latency. In contested and disconnected environments, this capability is critical, as edge computing allows systems to “operate independently even when completely disconnected from high-capacity networks,” ensuring operational resilience where connectivity, latency and cyber risk directly affect mission success. With this in mind, Lantronix Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRX) and Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) have announced a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and Master Services Agreement (MSA) to jointly develop AI-powered edge compute solutions for defense and autonomous systems. The partnership centers on Qualcomm-based embedded platforms designed to deliver real-time, on-device threat detection for drones and unmanned systems without reliance on cloud connectivity, establishing a scalable framework for integration, commercialization and deployment across defense and security markets
Safe Pro Group (NASDAQ: SPAI), a developer of AI-enabled defense and security solutions, announced it has entered into a memorandum of understanding and master services agreement with Lantronix Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRX) to jointly develop, integrate and commercialize embeddable chipsets for Qualcomm-based drone and autonomous vehicle platforms. Under the agreements, Safe Pro Object Threat Detection AI algorithms will be integrated with Lantronix Open-Q system-on-module solutions to enable real-time, on-device detection of landmines and small threats without reliance on cloud connectivity, improving latency, resilience and mission-critical performance across defense and commercial unmanned systems.
Strategic Collaboration positions Lantronix for long-term, high-margin growth in defense and commercial drone markets projected to reach $57.8B by 2030*
Lantronix (LTRX) reported Q4 FY25 revenue of $28.8M and EPS of $0.01, missing analyst estimates. The stock fell nearly 5% in after-hours trading on the news.
