How DroneStar AI Scaled One Operator into a Whole Pack

Sovereignty

Crafted in Europe, Trusted Worldwide.

Purpose-built AI accelerators that keep your data, your compute, and your analytics under your control. High performance. Low power. No compromise on sovereignty.

Axelera's technology

Digital in‑memory computing.

Compute inside SRAM. The data stops travelling, the watts stop burning.

  • UP TO

    5x

    performance per dollar

    Cost efficiency with no performance compromise

  • 15

    TOPS per watt

    Demanding workloads without the power, the cost or the heat.

  • 99.9%

    relative accuracy

    Post-training quantization preserves FP32-equivalent accuracy with no retraining

Three ways to deploy.

  • Embedded

    AI in the machine: M.2 modules and single-board computers

  • Edge

    AI next to your data: PCIe cards for edge servers and industrial PCs

  • Server

    AI at data center scale: multi-AIPU cards that bring inference density to racks and supercomputers.

Examples

Axelera in action

Real-use cases running on Axelera silicon

  • TILED INFERENCE high-resolution scenes sliced into sections, so small objects stay detectable

  • SEGMENTATION AND DETECTION self-checkout: shopper, basket, bags and products masked and labelled, 18.6 to 22.6 fps end to end

  • PPE DETECTION hard-hat compliance across a wall of 24 live streams, with the host CPU at 4%

  • LLM, illustration an on-device language model answering across twelve camera streams

From model to production, powered by the Voyager® SDK

Everything you need to build, faster.

One toolchain, every deployment: describe your pipeline in YAML and the Voyager SDK compiles, quantizes and runs it on any Axelera product line, with no retraining required.

VOYAGERS.SDK
Voyager SDK: the end-to-end software stack

Purpose-built for AI inference: a declarative YAML pipeline language, 100+ supported models through one toolchain, and API compatibility with industry standards. From idea to deployment quickly, with deep customization when you need it.

Describe the workflow in plain language; Voyager Wingman creates and deploys it on device.

The running pipeline, inspected on real Metis silicon without leaving the desk.
