AAEON's BOXER-8645AI Pairs 8 GMSL2 Interfaces with NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin Power for AMR

HSIN-TIEN, Taiwan - April 15, 2024 - PRLog -- Industry-leading designer and manufacturer of edge AI solutions, AAEON, today introduced a new addition to its rich line of embedded AI systems based on the NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ platform, the BOXER-8645AI.

The BOXER-8645AI, which is powered by the NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Orin™ module, introduces the GMSL2 interface to the BOXER series, equipped with FAKRA connectors to enable up to eight GMSL2 connections for high-speed and wide-bandwidth video transmission.

Partnering with AAEON to provide high-quality peripheral hardware compatible with the BOXER-8645AI is e-con Systems™, a company at the forefront of designing, developing, and manufacturing custom and off-the-shelf camera solutions. As part of the collaboration between the two, the compatibility of e-con Systems' NileCAM25 Full HD global shutter GMSL2 color camera has been certified to provide full HD resolution with synced images and a latency of 1 millisecond when installed on the BOXER-8645AI.

With the addition of the GMSL2 interface alongside the trusted quality of e-con Systems peripheral hardware, the BOXER-8645AI can achieve extremely low-latency video transmission and increase its inferencing accuracy across a distance of 15 meters.

Notably, the BOXER-8645AI is E-Mark certified and has 9-Axis sensor and GNSS support, which gives credence to its potential use in the AMR sphere. Also conducive to this application field is its broad communication protocol support, which includes a total of four DB-9 ports for isolated CANBus, digital I/O, and two RS-232 (Rx/Tx/CTS/RTS)/RS-485 connections.

As has become standard for AAEON's AI system range, the BOXER-8645AI offers an M.2 2230 E-Key and M.2 3052 B-Key to give users the option of Wi-Fi and LTE module installation, respectively. Meanwhile, the BOXER-8645AI's NVMe storage capacity is joined by up to 64GB of eMMC onboard and two 2.5" SATA drives.

In terms of mechanical features, the BOXER-8645AI is built to be incredibly durable. For use in large vehicles such as buses, law enforcement units, or armored cars, the BOXER-8645AI has a wide 9V to 36V power input range with ignition delay on/off function, alongside MIL-STD-810G standard tolerance to shock and vibration.

Able to operate in harsh environmental conditions, the BOXER-8645AI also boasts a wide temperature range of -25°C to 65°C and is E-Mark certified.
