DALLAS, Oct. 5, 2026

DALLAS, Oct. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MICROIP Inc. (TPEx: 7796) and its group company, AQLS Inc., generated strong commercial traction across defense, healthcare and energy sectors during Taiwan Expo USA 2026 in Dallas. The group engaged with over 100 North American and international organizations, while U.S. state and local government officials explored local operations. Following MICROIP's recent APAC automotive wins and a 20 million AI smart residential project, the showcase drew heightened interest from global institutional investors evaluating strategic investments to accelerate international expansion.

"The market isn't looking for isolated components or basic hardware assemblies — it demands turnkey edge AI systems that solve immediate pain points," said James Yang, chairman of MICROIP. "Our 'Software-Driven Hardware' architecture, backed by Taiwan's semiconductor ecosystem, addresses this shift. Strong engagement from North American partners, government officials and global investment firms validates our strategy for sustained global revenue growth."

AQLS Debuts Turnkey AI UAV Mission Systems
AQLS Inc. (a MICROIP Group company) positioned itself as a vertical mission system supplier delivering a four-layer architecture: aircraft, edge AI payload, ground station and encrypted communications. Through its "One Software Stack" framework, operators pilot eight active models — spanning 600-gram units to 41.5-kilogram heavy-lift platforms — alongside upcoming 70-kilogram and hybrid-electric VTOL aircraft. With onboard edge AI for cloud-independent tracking, anti-jamming radios and Taiwan-made EO/IR payloads, the fleet leverages a trusted supply chain for critical components to meet U.S. NDAA standards.

This NDAA-compliant architecture sparked immediate project discussions. U.S. and European defense consultants and dual-use tech firms evaluated integrating AQLS platforms into government tenders. A U.S. oil and gas operator discussed a multi-party pipeline inspection alliance, and inquiries also included North American factory patrols, smart agriculture and over 100-unit requirement for 10-kilogram-payload drones from South Asia.

Scaling Edge AI and Custom Silicon
MICROIP secured direct order and partnership inquiries from U.S. and Taiwanese enterprises for its AIMS in-vehicle safety platform (ADAS, BSD and anti-spoofing Face ID DMS) and CAPS (AIVO / XEdgAI) no-code multi-script vision platform. Additionally, MICROIP's CATS custom ASIC design service — featuring chiplet integration and COPOS packaging — and AQLS's AI-powered EDA tools advanced strategic discussions with North American semiconductor firms.
