AAEON, a leading designer and manufacturer of AI Edge solutions, has today confirmed that its Fanless Embedded AI System, the BOXER-8640AI, will support the newly released NVIDIA Jetpack 6.0 software development kit.

The NVIDIA Jetpack 6.0 SDK is equipped with a range of new features conducive to accelerating AI application development, such as Jetson Platform Services, a modular, API-driven suite of pre-built and cloud-native software services.The BOXER-8640AI was the first of AAEON's Fanless Embedded AI System range to feature the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin module, designed with a precise set of interfaces to utilize the AI performance offered by the NVIDIA Jetson edge AI platform. At the time of launch, AAEON noted that the PC would maintain ongoing support for updates to the NVIDIA JetPack SDK in order to give its customers a complete framework with which to harness world-class AI acceleration, multimedia, graphics, and computer vision tools for any application, as new technologies enter the market.

NVIDIA JetPack 6.0's introduction of Jetson Platform Services reduces the time required to configure and deploy edge AI applications using the BOXER-8640AI. These modular services, including AI Perception Service using the NVIDIA DeepStream SDK, Sensor Management and Storage with VST, and AI Analytics for processing metadata to time-series insights, will empower developers to create innovative edge AI solutions. Furthermore, AAEON is committed to providing comprehensive support for the adoption of NVIDIA JetPack 6.0 across its BOXER-8000 series, ensuring customers can leverage the latest advancements in AI development across their entire product range.

To complement these advancements, NVIDIA JetPack 6.0 includes updates such as NVIDIA TensorRT 8.6.2 for high-performance deep learning inference, NVIDIA DLA 3.14 for hardware acceleration of convolutional neural networks, NVIDIA cuDNN 8.9.4 for optimized deep learning primitives, and NVIDIA CUDA 12.2.1 for comprehensive GPU-accelerated application development. Additionally, the full release of the update has enabled security and power management features to par with NVIDIA JetPack 5.X.

By leveraging these features, the BOXER-8640AI offers even greater flexibility to AAEON customers for AI edge computing solutions. With its robust specifications, including up to 64 GB LPDDR5 memory, multiple storage options, extensive I/O interfaces, and now upgraded support for Linux Ubuntu 22.04, the BOXER-8640AI is an ideal platform to bring industry 4.0, smart retail, transportation, and autonomous mobile robot solutions to market.
