Ainos and NEXCOM Partner to Expand AI Nose Ecosystem into Industrial Edge AI

By: ACCESS Newswire

Collaboration Combines SmellTech and Edge AI for Intelligent Environmental Sensing

Partnership Expands AI Nose's Industrial Ecosystem and Commercial Reach

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / October 14, 2025 / Ainos, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIMD)(NASDAQ: AIMDW), a leader in AI-powered scent digitization, today announced a strategic partnership with NEXCOM International Co., Ltd., a leader in industrial computing and edge AI solutions, to advance the integration of Ainos' AI Nose technology into NEXCOM's industrial edge computing platforms.

Under the partnership, Ainos will provide AI Nose hardware and software for integration into NEXCOM's edge AI and automation systems, enabling real-time environmental sensing across manufacturing and industrial applications. The companies will jointly develop and market integrated solutions that combine Ainos' SmellTech and Smell Language Model (SLM) with NEXCOM's Industry 4.0 infrastructure to support intelligent monitoring, predictive maintenance, and sustainable operations.

"Our partnership with NEXCOM marks another key step in scaling AI Nose across industrial environments," said Eddy Tsai, Chairman, President, and CEO of Ainos, Inc. "Integrating AI Nose with NEXCOM's industrial edge computing platform is pivotal to smart manufacturing because it allows edge systems to interpret and act on scent data, turning invisible air signals into actionable intelligence. NEXCOM's global reach, robust edge computing portfolio, and leadership in AIoT solutions align perfectly with our goal of making AI-powered digital olfaction a core capability of the connected factory."

Founded in 1992 with 1,200+ employees worldwide across Europe, the U.S., and Asia, NEXCOM develops innovative SD-Edge computing platforms and AIoT solutions. The company serves customers across industrial automation, robotics, intelligent transportation, smart city, and healthcare sectors, with six global business units and manufacturing plants in the United States, Taiwan, and China. NEXCOM maintains 117 partners in 50 countries and holds multiple international certifications, underscoring its commitment to quality, environmental responsibility, and operational excellence.

This collaboration expands Ainos' growing ecosystem of industrial partners, which already includes leaders in semiconductors, automation, and robotics. The partnership strengthens Ainos' strategy to commercialize AI Nose globally through SmellTech-as-a-Service, delivering AI-powered scent intelligence to enhance safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability in industrial operations.

About AI Nose

AI Nose digitizes scent into Smell ID, an AI-driven scent intelligence. This full-stack electronic nose (e-nose) platform combines precision MEMS sensor arrays with proprietary AI algorithms, detecting scent at parts-per-billion (ppb) sensitivity. Smell ID converts analog scent data into actionable insights, while the proprietary Smell Language Model (SLM) interprets complex scent patterns. Backed by a 13-year scent data moat and deep medtech expertise, AI Nose delivers continuous monitoring, predictive analytics, and instant alerts to enhance safety, quality, and efficiency. Offered as SmellTech-as-a-Service, it provides subscription access to scent intelligence, analytics, and real-time alerts-turning the invisible into strategic advantage.
