Machine vision that aims to see the whole picture at the edge
Aaeon, a developer of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Industry 4.0 solutions, has released its BOXER-8130AI, the newest product in a line of compact, fanless embedded Edge AI systems.
Powered by NVidia Jetson TX2, the BOXER-8130AI is said to be ideal for machine vision and AI/IoT gateway applications. The BOXER-8130AI features the powerful NVidia Jetson TX2 CPU paired with 8GB LPDDR4 memory and 32GB eMMC storage onboard. With two processors onboard, the Dual Denver 2 and Quad ARM 57 processors, the NVidia Jetson TX2 is capable of supporting up to 256 CUDA cores and supports AI frameworks such as TensorFlow and Caffe. The BOXER-8130AI can even be configured to support a customer’s own AI interface software.
The BOXER-8130AI is designed to integrate into any environment. Featuring six MIPI CSI-2 interfaces, the BOXER-8130AI can support up to six MIPI cameras. The BOXER-8130AI is also claimed to be easy to maintain, “with an SD Card slot, USB OTG, remote ON/OFF and almost all of its I/O ports together on one side”. The BOXER-8130AI also features two antenna ports, perfect for mobile or AIoT gateway applications.
The BOXER-8130AI keeps the built tough design that the Aaeon BOXER family is built on. It is capable of operating in temperature ranges from -20°C to 55°C and features a wide input voltage range of 9~24 VDC. Its fanless design also keeps dust and other contaminants from affecting operation, perfect for the harsh requirements of industrial embedded applications.
Speaking on the BOXER-8130AI, Aaeon product manager Ken Pan says, “This is the perfect system for customers who are looking for a compact and rugged, embedded AI edge solution.”
