# Lantronix Promotes Edge-AI Systems in Washington

Lantronix CEO Saleel Awsare plans to meet investors and defense customers at the AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition in Washington, D.C., October 12–14, 2026. The company is promoting its Blue UAS-listed compute module and integrated edge-AI capabilities, reporting $12.6 million in fiscal 2026 unmanned-systems revenue and citing demand associated with the $1.1 billion Drone Dominance Program. The announcement identifies no specific solicitation or contract award, so it signals market positioning rather than a current bid opportunity.

- The AUSA event gives defense buyers and industry stakeholders a near-term opportunity to discuss Lantronix’s unmanned-systems technology directly with its CEO.
- Companies evaluating UAS components can assess how the Blue UAS-listed compute module and edge-AI capabilities fit their program needs; the announcement does not specify a procurement requirement or selection process.
- The cited Drone Dominance Program demand may indicate a market opportunity for unmanned-systems suppliers, but the announcement does not identify a contract vehicle, solicitation, or award.
