MediaTek has announced that its upcoming Dimensity 9400 chipset will feature support for Gemini Nano, a multimodal AI technology. This integration promises to enhance the chip’s AI capabilities, particularly in image, text, and speech processing areas. The Dimensity 9400 will also feature a next-generation Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for improved on-device AI performance.

Beyond the Dimensity 9400, MediaTek plans to extend Gemini Nano support to other Generative AI-enabled processors. However, specific details about which additional chipsets will receive this functionality still need to be clarified. The company’s collaboration with Google plays a key role in its efforts to enhance AI experiences across the Android ecosystem.

Gemini Nano, which debuted on Google’s Pixel 9 series using the Tensor G4 chipset, has grown in popularity. It powers features like Pixel Recorder, allowing devices to perform smaller-scale AI tasks directly on hardware. This multimodal AI technology is designed to manage complex operations efficiently on smartphones and other devices.

With this new integration, MediaTek promises users more advanced AI features, such as capturing images and receiving detailed descriptions. The Dimensity 9400 is set to launch in October, paving the way for more AI-enhanced experiences across various devices.
