Accelovant Announces Integrated Sensing and Control Demonstration on Azbil USA Controller at SEMICON West 2026

Low-Cost Fiber-Optic Sensing Integration for Advanced PID and ML Controllers

San Francisco, CA — October 12, 2026 — Accelovant Technologies Corporation, a provider of high-performance fiber-optic sensing and ML edge-control solutions, today announced that its advanced fiber-optic temperature sensing engine is featured in live controller demonstrations at SEMICON West 2026 in San Francisco (October 13–15, 2026).

The demonstration, taking place at the Azbil USA Corporation booth (#5786), highlights the seamless integration of Accelovant’s advanced optical sensing hardware with commercial PID and Machine Learning (ML) control systems. The setup showcases how low-latency, drift-free thermal inputs can be used with predictive and closed-loop process optimization for semiconductor wafer temperature uniformity.

“Leading semiconductor equipment OEMs already depend on Accelovant for high-precision thermometry for temperature uniformity on the wafer, but as process windows shrink, design teams require tighter integration directly into PID and machine-learning controllers,” said Michael Goldstein, CEO of Accelovant. “Our strategic partner program works with forward-thinking controller providers to link our low-cost, multi-channel sensing engines directly with PID and ML control loops to set new performance benchmarks. Closed-loop thermal control can be unlocked when sensing and advanced control algorithms operate as a unified platform.”

Accelerating Real-Time AI Control at the Point-of-Process

The Azbil demonstration announcement builds on Accelovant’s broader momentum in bringing real-time model-based control directly to process chemistry. Accelovant recently unveiled MPX-EDGE, a high-performance Edge AI/MIMO controller engineered for sub-millisecond control as fabs push toward the 2 nm design node and beyond.

Featuring plug-and-play isolated I/O modules and native optical sensor connectivity, the MPX-EDGE architecture allows equipment makers and controller partners to run their own IP-protected AI models directly at the point-of-process. By activating the ultra-high-bandwidth, low-latency signal-processing capabilities inherent in Accelovant’s optical sensing engine, the platform enables real-time ML inference and closed-loop process control to support improved yields, repeatability, and overall tool throughput.
