Edge Computing Box

8-core A53 | 17.6 TOPS Computing Power

● Provides 17.6 TOPS (INT8) peak computing power and 2.2 TFLOPS (FP32) high-precision computing power, with a single chip supporting up to 32 channels of H.264 & H.265 real-time decoding.

● Supports mainstream deep learning frameworks such as Caffe / TensorFlow / MxNet / PyTorch / ONNX / PaddlePaddle, making it one of the few edge computing devices in the industry that is compatible with both domestic and international deep learning frameworks.

● Supports Docker containerized deployment and Python development environment.

● Deep learning development toolkit, including underlying libraries (ffmpeg, OpenCV, etc.), inference deployment tools, and a series of other software tools, covering capabilities such as model optimization and efficient runtime support required during the neural network inference stage.

● Provides open-source pipeline development tool examples, integrating full data flow modules such as stream pulling, decoding, inference analysis, and stream pushing.

● Supports Gigabit Ethernet to provide high-speed network connectivity, matching its ultra-high computing power.

● Expandable with LTE wireless transmission, providing convenience for edge business deployment.

This intelligent workstation, featuring ultra-powerful computing performance and high integration, has a built-in third-generation TPU, providing 17.6 TOPS (INT8) peak computing power. The CPU processor is an 8-core ARM Cortex-A53, with a main frequency up to 2.3GHz.
