NVIDIA has introduced Jetson Xavier NX, the world’s smallest, most powerful artificial intelligence (AI) supercomputer for robotic and embedded computing devices at the edge. Smaller than a credit card, the energy-efficient Jetson Xavier NX module delivers server-class performance up to 21 TOPS for running AI workloads, and consumes as little as 10 watts of power. Jetson Xavier NX opens the door for embedded edge computing devices that demand increased performance but are constrained by size, weight, power budgets or cost. These include small commercial robots, drones, intelligent high-resolution sensors for factory logistics and production lines, optical inspection, network video recorders, portable medical devices, and other industrial Internet of Things (IoT) systems. “AI has become the enabling technology for modern robotics and embedded devices that will transform industries,” said Deepu Talla, VP and GM of Edge Computing at NVIDIA. ...
