Nvidia and Arrow Electronics, Inc. are bringing Nvidia Jetson Xavier, a first-of-its-kind computer designed for AI, robotics and edge computing, to companies worldwide to create next-generation autonomous machines.
The collaboration combines Nvidia’s AI capabilities with Arrow’s global industrial customers and its support network of engineers and designers.
This opens the door to the development and deployment of AI solutions for manufacturing, logistics, smart cities, healthcare and more.
“We are entering a new era of intelligent machines that will supercharge industries from manufacturing to healthcare,” said Deepu Talla, vice president and general manager of Autonomous Machines at Nvidia.
“At Arrow, we focus on connecting our global customers and developers to the right technology to enable transformative digital business,” said Aiden Mitchell, vice president and general manager, IoT Global Solutions at Arrow.
Jetson Xavier — available as a developer kit that customers can use to prototype designs — is supported by comprehensive software for building AI applications.
At its heart is the new Nvidia Xavier processor, which provides more computing capability than a powerful workstation and comes in three energy-efficient operating modes.
“Edge intelligence in modern robotics is a critical component in driving new use cases and increasing adoption. This relationship is primed to showcase the value of robotics in new areas and help drive continued innovation in the space,” said John Santagate, research director of Worldwide Robotics at IDC.
