Shaping the Future with NVIDIA

A brief look into the Future, by MiniDis

Introduction

Companies like MiniDis distinguish themselves by constantly monitoring developments in the field. Of course, the turbulent developments in the field of AI are certainly part of that, and not least where it concerns Industrial applications. Therefore we recently decided to team up with NVIDIA as one of the AI leaders both on the hard and software side of things. We will invest in knowledge and devices to experimen. Like the Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit,  the most affordable generative AI supercomputer. 

Generative AI at the Edge

The Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit is ment to develop solutions for Generative AI at the Edge. This compact, yet remarkably powerful device is set to transform how developers, engage with generative AI, robotics, and computer vision. With Unprecedented Performance and Accessibility, The Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit comes with a drastically reduced pricepoint making high-performance AI development more accessible than ever before!

A key highlight is its significant boost in AI performance. It delivers up to 67 INT8 TOPS of AI performance, marking a 1.7X improvement over its predecessor’s 40 TOPS. Memory bandwidth has also seen a 50% increase to 102 GB/s, up from 68 GB/s. This enhanced capability allows the kit to seamlessly run popular generative AI models, including vision transformers, large language models (LLMs), and vision-language models (VLMs). Crucially, all existing Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit users can unlock this „Super“ performance boost through a simple software update. This means prior hardware investments remain valuable, and a wider developer base can immediately benefit from the enhanced capabilities. The software updates to boost generative AI performance are also available to the Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano series of systems on modules.

Hardware only?

A Robust Ecosystem for Innovation The Jetson Orin Nano Super is not just about hardware; it’s backed by NVIDIA’s comprehensive AI software stack. It supports NVIDIA Isaac for robotics, NVIDIA Metropolis for vision AI, and NVIDIA Holoscan for sensor processing. Development time is further reduced with tools like NVIDIA Omniverse Replicator for synthetic data generation and the NVIDIA TAO Toolkit for fine-tuning pretrained AI models from the NGC catalog. The NVIDIA Jetson AI Lab provides immediate support for cutting-edge open-source generative AI models and offers easy-to-use tutorials. A broad and active Jetson community provides extensive guides, tutorials, articles, and inspiration from existing projects, fostering a collaborative development environment. Ecosystem partners further enhance accessibility by offering additional AI and system software, developer tools, custom software development, and support for hardware components like cameras and sensors.

From Concepts to Reality!

This powerful yet energy-efficient embedded computer is ideal for transforming generative AI concepts into reality, particularly for new physical AI applications at the edge. It facilitates fast inference for transformer-based generative AI models and supports the transition from task-specific models to more versatile foundation models. This makes it a perfect platform for accelerating AI-driven robotics across various industries, from manufacturing to healthcare, and for processing vast amounts of sensor data using vision AI.

The Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit, consisting of a Jetson Orin Nano 8GB system-on-module (SoM) and a reference carrier board, is available today.
