Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) Accelerates AI At NVIDIA GTC With Vera Rubin NVL72, Humanoids, Modular Data Center
16 March
2026, San Jose, California, and Taipei, Taiwan – Hon Hai Technology Group (“Foxconn”) (TWSE:2317) today
confirmed its unrivalled role in pacing the AI industrial revolution by
exhibiting full-system AI server racks for NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72
platform, and, for the first time in the United States, unveiling details of
its industrial humanoid robots and scalable modular data centers at NVIDIA GTC
2026.
Splashing
out on technology at the premier conference on artificial intelligence, the
world’s largest electronics manufacturer demonstrated its deep collaboration
with NVIDIA and its in-house strength in vertical integration with an array of
critical components and cutting-edge systems that power NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72
platform.
“Foxconn’s
vertical integration, precision manufacturing and future technologies come into
sharp relief when we work with NVIDIA year after year. This powerful
partnership enables AI factories to produce intelligence efficiently and
reliably for large-scale training, inference, and agentic workloads,” said
Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.
Double the
size of the year before, the Foxconn delegation, with over a hundred
executives, engineers and scientists, at San Jose this year brings expertise on
the latest advances in AI factories and physical AI, sharing the newest
innovations for NVIDIA
HGX and NVIDIA MGX platforms. At GTC
Booth 1921, the end-to-end NVIDIA AI Factory
Ecosystem showcase
features Foxconn’s key building blocks across mechanical design, cooling
components, and power delivery that come together to accelerate integration and
support rapid deployment. Foxconn will support the latest NVIDIA RTX PRO™ 4500 Blackwell Server Edition GPUswith
new servers to power demanding data processing, AI, video and visual computing
workloads.
For the
first time in the United States, Foxconn unveiled details of its AI-powered
industrial humanoid robot being developed in collaboration with NVIDIA. Both at
Foxconn’s booth and GTC sessions – “Develop Physical AI Applications and Build Data Factories
With the Robotics Ecosystem” and “Building and Scaling AI Factories With Digital Twins and
Robotics” – Foxconn experts show how the
robots autonomously execute high-precision, repetitive industrial operations –
including pick-and-place, screw fastening, and material handling –
demonstrating reliability and operational efficiency in real-world conditions.
The robotic skills derived from actual factory scenarios are the result of
combining simulation-based training with on-site iteration, leveraging NVIDIA
Isaac GR00T, NVIDIA FoundationPose, NVIDIA
Isaac Sim and NVIDIA Jetson Thor, to
enable rapid deployment and scalable rollout across manufacturing facilities.
Meanwhile,
the modular data center, or MDC, redefines scalability. Foxconn, with partners, are launching a new
generation of AI-ready modular and hybrid architectures to meet demand from
new-generation AI models for ultra-high-density compute power and electrical
infrastructure. Through highly standardized and modular designs – see a
small-scale model at Booth 1921 – the complex construction of an AI data center
is transformed into a replicable and expandable industrialized solution,
accelerating the journey for enterprises from building compute power to
realizing the business value of AI.
Foxconn’s
Visionbay.ai, as an NVIDIA Cloud Partner
(NCP), strategically collaborates with ecosystem leaders, enabling a unified
“AI+Workflow” deployment architecture – bridging foundation models, platforms,
applications, and compute infrastructure. Executing a global AI infrastructure
strategy exceeding 1GW of deployed capacity, Foxconn is scaling from Taiwan
into strategic regions worldwide, establishing strong foundations for sovereign
AI.
Another
capability on display at GTC is Genesis, Foxconn’s WEF-recognized AI initiative. Powered by NVIDIA
Omniverse and Foxconn FactoryGPT, Genesis
demonstrates a fully integrated digital-physical factory. Visitors experience
how AI simulates optimal strategies within digital twins and feeds decisions
back to real-world production lines – forming a continuous closed-loop
optimization cycle.
In Smart City, Foxconn’s CityGPT integrates with NVIDIA Metropolis to advance
AI-powered transportation and safety, while Smart EV features enhancing ADAS
capabilities involving FoxBrain, the Group’s proprietary, traditional Chinese
large-language model.
Foxconn’s integrated healthcare AI ecosystem on
exhibit focuses on four clinical domains, including scrub nurse collaborative
robotics, colonoscopy Agentic AI, cardiovascular digital twins, and multimodal
precision treatment for breast cancer. These take medical AI from standalone model applications to a fully
realized agentic AI healthcare system – capable of perception, reasoning, and
action – enabling scalable clinical innovation.
