Advantech announces the upcoming release of its AIR-030 series, a distributed AI system based on the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, and the EPC-R73 series.00 of industrial Box PCs based on NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano. The NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin module delivers up to 275 TOPS and 8x the performance over the previous generation, enabling the AIR-030 series and EPC-R7300 series to provide AI developers with ready-to-install, easy-to-configure solutions with in order to accelerate robotics and vision applications with AI. These distributed AI solutions incorporate DeviceOn for Edge AI software, which makes it easy to manage the lifespan of AI development, from AI container installation and over-the-air AI model updates to retraining and performance optimization. . DeviceOn for Edge AI also provides real-time monitoring and management from distributed AI devices to cloud-based AI. Together with the AI performance of a server, industrial-grade design and distributed management, the AIR-030 and EPC-R7300 series are the ideal solutions for AI applications in Autonomous Vehicles (AGV), Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) , robotics and vision.
AIR-030 High Performance Distributed AI Systems with Jetson AGX Orin
Featuring a robust design with dimensions of 030 x 200 x 220 mm (74” x 7,87” x 8,66”), the AIR-2,91 series offers powerful AI inference capabilities through the use of NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin in autonomous machines with efficient consumption. This distributed AI system features numerous I/O options, such as CANBus for motion and direction control, LAN and optional PoE for camera input, and DI/O for sensor control. It also offers global protection and EMC certifications such as CE/FCC, CB, UL, BSMI, CCC, IEC 61000-6-2 and IEC 61000-6-4, making it ideal for real-time video analytics applications and AI-based robotics in heavy industries. The AIR-030 series supports various expansions to better accommodate wireless modules and advanced AI distributed applications, with 1 x M.2 B key 2280/3052 for NVME storage and 5G connectivity, 1 x M.2 2230 E key for Wi-Fi connectivity and a PCIe x16 slot for connecting additional feature cards. AI developers can also boost the performance of the AIR-030 series by adding a 10GbE card for high-speed data transmission or a GPU for high-performance graphics processing. The AIR-030 series supports the Linux Ubuntu 20.04 OS environment and NVIDIA JetPack 5.0 and above software development kit, as well as the Isaac platform, thus reducing the time and cost of production AI development and robotics.
Industrial Box PCs compatible with EPC-R7300 Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano
Advantech's EPC-R7300 Series Industrial Grade Box PC incorporates a production carrier card with a fully compatible form factor and pin configuration for Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano modules. Designed to serve as a complete industrial-grade system, the EPC-R7300's high-quality aluminum casing improves heat dissipation and ESD protection for optimal protection. In addition, its thermal design supports the installation of module-specific and modular heat sinks, allowing developers to adopt thermal solutions based on the Jetson module of their choice. Regarding the I/O configuration, the EPC-R7300 series takes advantage of the mechanical design of UIO40-Express and its carrier card uses application-oriented I/O expansion cards to increase its capacity, thus offering flexibility. developers to select I/O expansion cards such as serial port (RS-232, RS-485), CANBus, isolated DI/DO, USB 2.0/3.0, and 4-port GbE cards for machine vision camera input, motion control and detection. In addition, Advantech's AIM-Linux software service provides UIO40-Express peripheral drivers for NVIDIA JetPack. This allows you to have the functionality of UIO40-Express without additional integration effort. These features make the EPC-R7300 series an excellent choice for prototyping and mass deployment of AGV, AMR, and robotics in healthcare, agriculture, manufacturing, and logistics.
The first samples of AIR-030 will be available in November, while orders for the EPC-R7300 series can be placed in December 2022 (Orin NX) and January 2023 (Orin Nano). For more information contact our sales team or visit our website.
