NVIDIA released the world's smallest edge AI supercomputing: 21tops computing power, power consumption is only 10W!

11 month 7 Japan , Ying Wei Da （NVIDIA） Released the smallest 、 The most powerful edge AI supercomputer Jetson Xavier NX. This is a piece of hardware only the size of a bank card , Can be in 15W Provides up to... Under power consumption 21TOPS The calculation of , The price is only 399 dollar .

Jetson Xavier NX The size of is only 70×45 mm , Smaller than a standard credit card , But it's running modern AI When the workload is available 21TOPS perhaps 14TOPS Server level performance , The corresponding power consumption is only 15W、10W.

Jetson Xavier NX Equipped with six core Carmel ARM 64 Bit processor , Have 6MB Second level cache 、4MB Three level cache , At the same time with NVIDIA Volta Architecturally GPU, Integrate 384 individual CUDA The core 、48 individual Tensor Tensor core 、2 individual NVDLA Deep learning acceleration engine , And provide from high speed CSI、PCIe To low speed I2C、GPIO A rich set of I/O.

Video supports two-way 4K30、4K60 decode , Cameras support the most 6 individual CSI( Through virtual channels at most 36 individual )、12 road MIPI CSI-2(3×4 perhaps 6×2), Memory support 128-bit 8GB LPDDR4X(51.2GB/s), The network supports Gigabit Ethernet , Operating system support Ubuntu, And support all major AI frame , Include TensorFlow、PyTorch、MxNet、Caffe etc. .

As NVIDIA Part of the software architecture approach ,Jetson Xavier NX from NVIDIA JetPack SDK Provide support , This is a complete one AI Software stack , Can run modern complex AI The Internet , It is also used for the accelerated Library of deep learning and computer vision 、 Computer graphics 、 Multimedia, etc .

Jetson Xavier NX Already obtained Lockheed Martin、Musashi Seimitsu And so on .

Jetson Xavier NX Module price 399 dollar , It will be next year 3 Month from NVIDIA Distribution channels go public .

NVIDIA Express ,Jetson Xavier NX It can be used in robots and edge embedded computing devices , Including small commercial robots 、 Unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) 、 Smart high resolution sensor ( For factory logistics and production lines )、 Optical detection 、 Network video recorder 、 Portable medical devices , And other industrial Internet of things (IoT) System .

at present , NVIDIA Jetson The platform has launched a small AI Computer Jetson Nano、 For completely autonomous machines Jetson AGX Xavier Series and for edge AI Jetson TX2 series , Plus just released Jetson Xavier NX, Four products are suitable for different performance 、 Application scenarios of budget requirements . among Xavier NX And Nano Pin compatible , Shared hardware design , Seamless upgrade .

The specific comparison parameters are as follows ：

in addition , NVIDIA also for Jetson Series of products have done the benchmark test of hardware performance evaluation , be based on MLPerf Inference 0.5 The benchmark , Compared several products in image classification , Object detection , Attitude estimation , Real time performance of segmentation and other processing characters .

Throughout the Jetson In the series ,Jetson Xavier NX Played “ The essential ” Role , It is better than “ Big brother ”Jetson AGX Xavier It's smaller , Cheaper , More than the other two “ The younger brother ” It's a lot faster .

released Jetson Xavier NX With all the Jetson Series products can be the same in the same CUDA-X AI Running on the software architecture , So as to ensure that the product can be quickly launched to the market at a lower development cost .

NVIDIA vice president and general manager of Autonomous machines Rob Csongor Express ,Jetson Series already owned worldwide 40 Ten thousand developers , exceed 3000 Customers .
