Waveshare Jetson Orin NX 16GB Developer Kit (24223)

The Waveshare Jetson Orin NX 16GB Developer Kit (24223 ) is a computer platform for developing artificial intelligence (AI) software for embedded and distributed Internet of Things (IoT) systems (Edge). It includes the Jetson Orin NX Module, which is a compact module with a high-performance processor, AI support, and advanced input/output (I/O) capabilities.

The Jetson Orin NX Module is available in 8GB and 16GB RAM versions, allowing you to choose the development approach that best suits your project. For example, if your application requires more data, you need to use more RAM to ensure faster data access and greater performance.

The Jetson Orin NX AI Development Kit is highly performant, energy efficient, and can perform a variety of computational tasks, including face recognition, video and audio processing, machine learning, data analysis, and more. It can be used to develop various AI projects such as autonomous cars, drones, robots, and other embedded systems at the edge of the IoT.

This is not an official N-VIDIA developer kit

Based on the Jetson Orin NX module with JETSON-IO-BASE-B base board, which provides numerous peripheral interfaces such as M.2, HDMI, USB, etc., which is more convenient for users to realize the product's performance.

This kit includes the Orin NX module with 16GB of memory, and provides up to 100 TOPS AI Performance.

It comes with a free 128GB high-speed read/write NVMe SSD, which meets the development needs of large AI projects.

This kit also comes with a pre-installed AW-CB375NF wireless network card that supports Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band WIFI, with two additional antennas on the PCB to provide high-speed and reliable wireless network and Bluetooth connectivity.

N-VIDIA software
All N-VIDIA Jetson modules and development kits are supported by the same N-VIDIA Jetson software stack. Jetson software is designed to provide end-to-end acceleration for AI applications and accelerate time to market.

Pre-prepared models
Many AI applications share common needs: classification, object detection, speech translation, text-to-speech, recommender engines, sentiment analysis, and more. Pre-trained models from the NGC™ catalog are performance-optimized and ready to be fine-tuned using the N-VIDIA TAO Toolkit and customer datasets, reducing the time and cost of AI software development.
