Edge Computing, AI and Rugged System Architectures in Focus

At this year’s DSEI UK 2025, one of the world’s leading trade shows for defense, security, and technology applications, everything revolved around Artificial Intelligence, Edge Computing, and connected, rugged system architectures. Under the motto “Preparing the Future Force”, the event showcased emerging technology trends – from autonomous systems and resilience technologies to integrated AI at the tactical edge.

Together with international partners, BRESSNER Technology presented GPU-accelerated high-performance computing platforms, rugged edge systems, and mission-ready IT solutions designed for demanding operating conditions and tactical environments.

Martin Stiborski, Managing Director of BRESSNER Technology GmbH, explains:

“We are currently witnessing a clear paradigm shift: powerful computing performance no longer takes place exclusively in the data center, but directly where data is generated – at the edge. This applies to industrial applications just as much as to defence and security environments.”

Rugged HPC meets Edge Intelligence

At DSEI, BRESSNER demonstrated how GPU power, modular architecture, and rugged design can be combined into scalable edge solutions. The focus was on GPU-based HPC systems for defence and edge AI applications, lifecycle management, integration in tactical environments, as well as real-time performance and reliability in mission-critical systems.

Benjamin Nigl, Teamlead Sales – Rugged AI/Mobile at BRESSNER Technology, reports:

“What an incredible week at DSEI UK 2025! We had inspiring discussions, exciting live demos, and many valuable encounters with partners and new contacts. The days in London were filled with new ideas, interesting projects, and great conversations!”

The feedback from the industry was clear: high-performance, modular, and resilient systems are becoming increasingly important – especially when they can be flexibly integrated into existing infrastructures.

Industry Trends 2025: Resilience, Connectivity and Autonomy

The DSEI 2025 clearly highlighted that the future of mission-critical infrastructures lies in connected, resilient, and AI-driven systems. The following key areas stood out:

• Autonomous systems and UAV applications with AI inference directly at the edge

• Communication resilience against GPS interference and network outages

• Efficient thermal design and power optimization for ruggedized hardware

• Long-term availability and lifecycle security for mission-critical systems

These developments reflect the core competencies of BRESSNER Technology: Industrial IoT, rugged computing, and system integration. In collaboration with partners such as One Stop Systems and Neousys Technology, the company develops solutions that combine computing power, connectivity, and reliability in a unified concept.

Innovation at the Rugged Edge

The DSEI 2025 clearly demonstrated that the future of connected systems will be decided at the edge – where data is generated, where security and reliability converge, and where technologies like AI and high-performance computing deliver their greatest impact.

“Looking back at DSEI UK 2025 in London, we are impressed by the diversity of innovations and the high level of exchange that took place. Together with One Stop Systems, we presented rugged edge systems, GPU-based HPC platforms, and mission-ready IT solutions. However, the real highlights were the inspiring conversations and new connections with partners, customers, and industry experts.”

With over 30 years of experience in system integration, edge computing, and industrial hardware, BRESSNER Technology is well positioned to actively shape this development – as a reliable technology partner for industry, defence, and critical infrastructure sectors.

Outlook: From London to Hannover

Following a successful appearance in London, attention now turns to the next major event: The DSEI Germany 2027 will take place from 9–12 March 2027 at the Hanover Exhibition Center.

This marks the first time that the leading international forum for defence and security technologies will be held in Germany – an important milestone that BRESSNER Technology, as a German technology company, is particularly excited about.
