ASUS IoT has introduced PE1100N, an ultra-compact laptop for AI (synthetic intelligence) inferencing on the edge, and based mostly on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin collection. It incorporates a design for quiet operation, wealthy industrial connectivity for critical flexibility and helps a spread of energy inputs and working temperatures for optimum sturdiness.
With the Jetson platform, that includes an environment friendly Arm processor and embedded NVIDIA GPU (graphics processing unit), PE1100N delivers energy-efficient computing with AI-inferencing capabilities, making it supreme for numerous, scalable edge AI purposes in sensible metropolis, transportation, manufacturing and extra together with site visitors evaluation, people-tracking, counting and surveillance. Additionally, PE1100N’s compact measurement and anti-vibration design make it supreme for sensible manufacturing options, resembling automated guided automobile (AGVs), autonomous cell robots (AMRs), AI-powered automated optical inspection (AOI) and robotics purposes accelerating time to marketplace for AI purposes.
ASUS IoT developed PE1100N to straight serve the burgeoning smart-manufacturing market, collaborating intently with NVIDIA. Embedded with NVIDIA Jetson Orin, a platform for AI on the edge, PE1100N supplies as much as 100-trillion operations per second (TOPS), low-power (10-25 W) computing for deep studying and computer-vision duties delivering as much as 5X the efficiency of previous-generation gadgets. It additionally realises as much as 18X-better frames-per-watt effectivity than conventional x86-based platforms.
PE1100N additionally permits builders to run AI and machine-learning fashions by leveraging inventory SDK and library instruments, with minimal modifications to the code empowering the Jetson platform to be adopted, facilitating tasks from improvement to deployment. The NVIDIA Isaac robotic working system (ROS) SDK can also be supported by PE1100N, enabling the event of ROS 2 tasks.
Industrial-grade design with excessive expandability and connectivity
The ultra-compact PE1100N has a rugged design that features a metallic heatsink, and an extruded-aluminum chassis for environment friendly and silent cooling enabling secure, operation throughout a large -20° to 50°C temperature vary.
PE1100N is provided with assortment of I/O ports for numerous industrial functions, LAN, DIO, COM, USB 3.2 and Kind-A, and, on some fashions, CAN bus. It additionally advantages from a Micro-USB debug port for straightforward system upkeep. An elective Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module ensures easy, wi-fi and cloud connectivity, whereas the M.2 B key is able to accommodate a 4G/5G mobile module together with help for twin SIM slots. As nicely, help for GPS permits extra exact gadget monitoring and information recording for sensible transportation options.
PE1100N is on the market in two distinct flavours powered by NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX, or Jetson Orin Nano so there’s a mannequin to swimsuit all AI-performance necessities. ASUS IoT additionally affords board-level configuration to meet bespoke buyer requests.
