Ambient Scientific is partnering with Dimension NXG to power a new artificial intelligence (AI) wearable, MAI, for women’s health and safety. Using Ambient Scientific’s low-power GPX-10 processor, the device boasts up to two weeks of battery life.

A women-first health companion with a built-in safety layer, MAI tracks daily vitals like heart rate and SpO2 (and can support blood-pressure insights based on sensing configuration), turning daily signals into actionable health awareness. Over time, MAI builds a personalized baseline so it can flag meaningful deviations early and guide daily lifestyle-based healing through simple habits such as movement, breathwork, sleep, and nutrition.

In critical moments, MAI can act as a safety sentinel, detecting falls, SOS gestures, and opt-in stress cues to trigger rapid alerts. MAI is designed with on-device processing so sensitive signals remain private by default, enabling women to control data sharing. MAI also provides early risk insights for such conditions as PCOS/PCOD by detecting trends that often go unnoticed until clinical intervention is needed, thus helping women seek guidance sooner and track progress over time.

“With the GPX-10, we have broken traditional power barriers, allowing Dimension NXG to run sophisticated, multimodal AI models locally and continuously. This partnership is a testament to how Ambient Scientific is making sustainable, always-on intelligence a reality for everyone,” Ambient Scientific CEO GP Singh said.

To create a viable wearable for its target market, Dimension NXG required a processor capable of continuously running multiple sensor fusion and audio classification models without drawing excessive power for daily charging or constant smartphone connectivity.

“MAI is built to be a health companion women can rely on in the real world, not just in ideal network conditions,” Dimension NXG AjnaLens Chief Technology Officer Abhishek Tomar stated. “Ambient Scientific’s processor gave us the performance headroom to run intelligence locally on the wearable, with low latency and privacy by default, while still achieving up to 14 days of battery life on a 180mAh battery.”

Traditional processors move data back and forth between memory and the processor, known as the Von Neumann architecture. The GPX-10’s efficiency stems from its unique DigAn architecture, which uses both digital and analog components. The GPX-10 performs matrix multiplication, the core mathematical operations used in AI algorithms, directly within custom memory arrays. Using a massive parallel multi-core design, the chip can execute 512 billion operations per second (GOPS) while consuming a fraction of the power of its digital-only competitors.

By leveraging Ambient Scientific’s GPX-10, the MAI wearable achieves a 10-to-14 day battery life while perpetually running complex AI algorithms. This extended battery life enables the device to operate in regions of India where consistent access to electricity cannot be guaranteed.

The GPX-10 processes data locally on the device with only essential data that users want shared and sent to the cloud. Thus, the wearable remains secure and fully functional in environments with poor network coverage, ensuring a reliable safety lifeline.

The MAI wearable entered its first major field trial phase in mid-March with thousands of devices deployed to pre-order customers and trial participants across India. Dimension NXG plans to scale to more than 10,000 units by the end of the year as the product attains further medical-grade certifications.

Ambient Scientific is a fabless semiconductor company pioneering AI native compute architecture DigAn, combining the efficiency of analog with the scalability of digital to bring AI performance with sustained efficiency to an entire roadmap of processors from Edge to Cloud. The technology stack includes CubicCore compute, SenseMesh multimodal fusion, and Nebula toolchains, which reportedly redefine the ways in which compute, memory, sensing fusion, and software are co-designed for energy-aware intelligence. The firm is headquartered in Santa Clara, Calif., and is growing its global footprint.

Dimension NXG is an India-based deeptech AI company building smart wearables, AI glasses, and next-generation healthcare solutions for both B2B and B2C markets. The company develops disease-specific foundation models, tuned across specialities such as dermatology, ophthalmology, neurology, and oncology to convert longitudinal biometrics, lifestyle context, and medical history into actionable insights for prevention, screening, and care workflows. Dimension NXG also delivers AI- and XR-powered training and upskilling platforms that help institutions and frontline teams adopt new technologies and standardize best practices. With end-to-end capability across hardware, firmware, and applied AI, the company turns cutting-edge research into deployable, speciality-focused systems across multiple domains.
