While you are likely already familiar with Jetson as the NVIDIA AI platform for edge AI, you might be surprised to learn that the power of Jetson isn’t limited to solutions built entirely on Jetson platforms. Jetpack on Jetson and Isaac SDK, our robotics platform, adds AI capabilities to existing autonomous machines and bridges dependencies for diverse hardware and software solutions.
In this month’s technical digest, we’re highlighting this powerful capability and offering a collection of resources to help Robotic Operating System (ROS) users get familiar with the power of Jetson, Isaac SDK, Isaac Sim, and a success story on a startup in the NVIDIA Inception program.
