Amit Mate, Founder and CEO of GMAC Intelligence, presents the “Building Agentic Applications for the Edge” tutorial at the May 2025 Embedded Vision Summit.
Along with AI agents, the new generation of large language models, vision-language models and other large multimodal models are enabling powerful new capabilities that promise to transform industries. In this talk, Mate explores the requirements and architectures of agentic applications, including AI and non-AI requirements, and explores two main approaches to agent-based application architecture: integrating separate models and multimodal approaches. Through detailed examples, he demonstrates the pros and cons of each approach and discusses the challenges and opportunities of building practical agent-based applications on edge devices, including challenges associated with implementing large models at the edge.
