We are in the process of procuring the production OS and IoT management platform for Jetson Orin.
Our product is a Kiosk, development is in progress on the Jetson AGX Orin devkit.
- First ~100 Kiosks are going to be deployed with the Jetson AGX Orin devkit
- Next step is to transition to a third party carrier board with AGX Orin 32GB
- End goal is to optimize our AI models and transition to Orin NX
Can you help inform our decision and recommend any additional partners?
This is what we found so far in an Nvidia press release:
JetPack 6 enables an expanding array of Linux-based distributions on Jetson. These include Ubuntu server from Canonical, RHEL 9.4 by Redhat, SUSE, Wind River Linux, Redhawk Real Time OS, and various Yocto-based distributions. These Linux-based provide commercially supported enterprise offerings on Jetson to deploy and manage Jetson-based products with confidence.
The ability to run any Linux kernel enables Jetson customers to use their kernel version of choice and avoids having to spend resources backporting their drivers to a specific Jetson Linux kernel. Jetson customers can maintain their kernels independent of the JetPack road map.
With JetPack 6, you have the freedom to upgrade the compute stack without upgrading the Jetson Linux BSP. This feature has been especially popular in the community.
In addition, JetPack 6 adds Jetson Platform Services to Jetson Linux BSP and Jetson AI Stack. Jetson Platform Services is a suite of prebuilt and customizable services designed to accelerate AI application development on Jetson devices. These collections of modular services enable true cloud-native applications that are API-driven and disaggregated.
Enabling production deployment
Production systems require robust, reliable hardware. NVIDIA has a deep partnership with many OEMs that can provide a production-quality carrier board and packaging. Some of our partners have also integrated and validated aforementioned workflows and Jetson Platform Services. This guarantees that all the services will work out of the box on their platform. **Partners that have integrated JetPack 6 and Jetson Platform Services include: **
**> **
> Yuan
> Aetina
> Aaeon
> Advantech
> AVermedia
> Seeed Studio
> CRG
Once you build your system and create your application, the final step in productization is the deployment and management of the application. Applications might also need to be frequently updated in the field, which requires a remote over-the-air (OTA) update. We’re delighted to partner with a few of the leading fleet management companies who have integrated the Jetson Platform Service and can provide a turnkey solution to deploy and update your edge applications. Partners include:
