Eindhoven, The Netherlands, February 29th, 2024 — Advantech, a leading industrial edge AI solution provider announces the release of MIC-715-OX — an innovative, ruggedized edge AI system for applications in harsh environments. Based on the NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ NX system-on-module, this solution features an IP67 rating for water and dust, lockable connectors for vibration tolerance, a machine ignition protection system, built-in PoE, and GMSL2 video interface support.
Improving Heavy Industry with Edge AI
AI has demonstrated great potential in traffic, security, and manufacturing applications, but has so far remained in the early phases of its implementation within heavy industry. Heavy industries often entail costly 24/7 operation in harsh environments that can be dangerous to laborers. AI-enabled autonomous equipment present an opportunity to improve this situation by augmenting the efficiency, accuracy, and safety of these industries. Accordingly, Advantech’s MIC-715-OX ruggedized edge AI system is designed with these needs and in-vehicle AI applications in mind.
Superior Performance in Harsh, Critical Environments
Advantech’s MIC-715-OX is powered by the NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ NX module with AI performance of up to 100 TOPS. It leverages M12 connectors, supports operation in broad temperature ranges (-25 ~ 60 °C; 77 ~ 140 °F), and offers an IP67 rating. Similarly, all of MIC-715-OX’s I/O are lockable, providing advanced vibration resistance. MIC-715-OX supports cameras via an integrated PoE port, and will soon support up to 6 x Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link 2 (GMSL2) cameras. This combination of features makes MIC-715-OX uniquely suitable for applications in harsh environments.
Protective Mechanism Prevents Ignition Stalling
Advantech’s MIC-715-OX leverages a protective ignition mechanism for heavy industry vehicle use cases that reduces engine stalling and ensures system operation during circumstances with unstable input voltage. Likewise, users can manually adjust this solution’s ignition time via connected machines. As a member of the MIC-AI series, MIC-715-OX provides flexible I/O, diverse peripherals, excellent longevity, and board support package (BSP) capabilities. MIC-715-OX is also capable of supporting Wi-Fi, 4G/LTE, and 5G simultaneously. This solution is available for order now.
