📱 On-Device & Embedded LLMs — the deployment layer that brings ultra-low latency, offline-capable intelligence directly to factory floors, HMIs, edge gateways, and resource-constrained industrial hardware.
Just read this excellent technical white paper from
@aasaitech on real-time on-device inference for manufacturing and edge orchestration.
Key highlights: • 8-step pipeline: Use case → Distillation → Aggressive quantization (4/3-bit) → Hardware compilation (TensorRT/ONNX/TVM) → Deploy → Local inference RAG cache → Hybrid escalation → Continuous improvement • Hardware: Jetson, Industrial HMIs, Embedded controllers, NPUs • Core wins: Millisecond responses, data sovereignty, offline resilience, lower power & cost, real-time anomaly detection, voice commands, operator assistance • Design principles: Minimal latency, reliability-first, safety & security, graceful degradation
This is the practical edge culmination of the entire series — turning RAG, agents, multimodal, hybrid AI, and optimization techniques into deployable intelligence where connectivity or latency is a constraint.

How are you approaching on-device/embedded LLMs in your industrial setups — quantized models on Jetson, full edge pipelines with local RAG, or hybrid escalation architectures?
