To support critical embedded AI systems such as drones, portable medical devices, smart cameras, high-resolution sensors, and other IoT embedded systems, NVIDIA today introduced Jetson Xavier NX, the world’s smallest, most powerful AI supercomputer for embedded and edge systems.
The energy-efficient Jetson Xavier NX delivers server-class performance with up to 21 TOPS, perfect for running modern AI workloads, with low power consumption.
For companies already building embedded machines, Jetson Xavier NX runs on the same CUDA-X AI software architecture as all Jetsons, ensuring rapid time to market and low development costs.
Jetson Xavier NX is supported by NVIDIA JetPack SDK, which is a complete AI software stack that can run modern and complex AI networks, accelerated libraries for deep learning as well as computer vision, computer graphics, multimedia and more.
