Edge AI for Electric Vehicles: How Vanix Powers India’s E-Mobility Boom

India is electrifying its transport systems at a staggering pace. While much of the global focus remains on Western EV players, India’s e-mobility growth is creating a new wave of engineering demand, and Vanix is right at the heart of it, delivering edge AI solutions that bridge battery management and fleet intelligence.

From Dumb Devices to Intelligent Infrastructure

Vanix designs and builds AI-enabled IoT devices that sit just above the battery management system (BMS). These boards monitor lithium-ion and LFP batteries used in electric vehicles and fleet applications, delivering insights that go well beyond basic voltage tracking.

Each device includes an SoC (with GSM, GPS, CAN, and onboard memory), a battery protection circuit, and sensors like accelerometers. All of this enables local edge processing, reducing the need to push everything to the cloud. The result: faster decisions, better energy management, and a more scalable EV ecosystem.

A Full Stack of Hardware, Firmware, and SaaS

Vanix offers this intelligence stack in multiple formats. Customers can buy just the hardware or a full bundle including firmware and SaaS. The platform’s standout feature is its custom protocol layer (DBF) that integrates seamlessly with a wide range of BMS types. It’s plug-and-play at an industrial level.

And for design engineers? The devices are form factor-compatible, based on familiar semiconductors like Quectel and STM32, and support OTA firmware updates with secure authentication and storage. Integration isn’t just possible—it’s straightforward.

EV Charging, Reinvented with FPGAs

Vanix is also taking on EV chargers. While most current models rely on low-power MCUs, Vanix is developing the world’s first FPGA-based EV charger in collaboration with AMD. With a Cortex-A9-class processor at its core, this platform offers the processing headroom needed for real-time analytics, predictive maintenance, and secure edge control—all while remaining scalable for India’s high-volume market.

The Trend is Global

What Vanix is doing in India is already a sign of what’s to come globally. As fleets grow and EVs become ubiquitous, edge AI will shift from premium to standard, just like ABS or GPS did before it. India’s ecosystem is commoditising this technology rapidly, offering a clear model for other regions to follow.

For engineers designing for the next phase of mobility, this is your early look at how edge intelligence is taking control of the EV revolution.
