The National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded Arizona State University $300,034 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to support the FACTORY-AI collaborative research project. FACTORY-AI designs intelligent models and infrastructure to enable smart manufacturing through integrated sensing, communication, and computing. The project transforms multimodal sensor streams into semantic control tokens using large language models to capture manufacturing operational intent, generates optimized workloads for open radio access network edge intelligence, and develops heterogeneous integrated compute-in-memory infrastructure to execute those workloads. Research teams conduct testing on the PROTON testbed, a 2,000-node industrial Internet of Things infrastructure at Arizona State University, to evaluate system performance and support robot coordination, machine monitoring, product inspection, and safer automated operations. The award funds a collaborative effort between Arizona State University and Clemson University organized around three integrated research thrusts: perception-learning-reflex sensing architecture, edge intelligence and workload optimization, and compute infrastructure design and management. Performance runs from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029, with work performed in Tempe, Arizona.
