It boasts a 1.7x increase in generative AI inference performance, a 70% overall performance boost, and an impressive 67 INT8 TOPSAdditionally, memory bandwidth has been upgraded by 50%, now reaching 102GB/sThese enhancements position the Jetson Orin Nano Super as a powerhouse for both AI enthusiasts and professional developers, allowing for more efficient and sophisticated AI applications.

This developer kit is designed for a wide range of applicationsWhether you are looking to build a retrieval-augmented generative large language model (LLM) chatbot, develop a visual AI agent, or deploy AI-powered robotics, the Jetson Orin Nano Super is the ideal platform for the jobThe improvements in speed and performance allow for more complex models and greater computational power, opening up new possibilities in each of these domains. 

What makes the Jetson Orin Nano Super particularly appealing is NVIDIA’s consideration for existing users

For those who already own a Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit, the new system comes with a software update that unlocks enhanced performance, essentially transforming older hardware into something newThis software update ensures that users can keep pace with the rapidly evolving AI landscape without needing to upgrade to an entirely new system.

The Jetson Orin Nano Super is particularly well-suited for individuals interested in developing skills in generative AI, robotics, or computer visionAs AI evolves from task-specific models to foundational models, this platform provides an accessible yet powerful environment for turning creative ideas into realityIts versatility makes it an attractive option for developers seeking to experiment with new models, fine-tune existing systems, or build AI-powered applications that push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Additionally, the Jetson Orin Nano Super enhances performance for all major generative AI models and transformer-based computer vision tasks

The system is equipped with an 8GB memory Jetson Orin Nano system-on-module (SoM) and a reference carrier board, providing an ideal platform for prototyping edge AI applicationsThis powerful SoM integrates NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture GPU, complete with tensor cores and a six-core ARM CPU, enabling support for multiple parallel AI application pipelines and high-performance inferenceWith the ability to support up to four cameras, the Jetson Orin Nano Super offers higher resolution and frame rates compared to previous versions, making it an optimal choice for visual AI and robotics applications.

Generative AI is developing rapidly, and the Jetson Orin Nano Super provides immediate support for cutting-edge models from the open-source communityNVIDIA’s Jetson AI Lab offers tutorials that are user-friendly and designed to help developers get up to speed quicklyFurthermore, developers can rely on the extensive Jetson community for support, sharing ideas and inspiration from other projects created by their peers.

A key advantage of the Jetson platform is its integration with NVIDIA’s broad suite of AI software

This ecosystem includes software tools for robotics (NVIDIA Isaac), visual AI (NVIDIA Metropolis), and sensor processing (NVIDIA Holoscan), each of which is designed to maximize the performance and precision of edge AI applicationsDevelopers can also take advantage of NVIDIA Omniverse Replicator, a tool that helps generate synthetic data, and the NVIDIA TAO Toolkit, which streamlines the fine-tuning of pre-trained AI models from the NGC catalogWith these tools, development time is greatly reduced, allowing creators to focus more on innovation and less on the technicalities of data generation and model tuning.

The Jetson ecosystem’s network of partners adds even more value by providing additional AI and system software, development tools, and customized software development servicesThese partners can also offer cameras, sensors, and the design services necessary for creating boards and complete product solutions.

In addition to the new Jetson Orin Nano Super, software updates will also be available for the Jetson Orin Nano and Orin NX series system modules, boosting generative AI performance by 1.7x
