Nvidia Releases The Next Generation Of Its Cutting-edge 'robot Brain'

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang is bullish connected nan early of robotics, and sees it arsenic nan chipmaker's biggest opportunity extracurricular of AI. Today nan company announced nan adjacent procreation of its Jetson AGX system-on-module called Jetson Thor. The developer kit and T5000 accumulation modules are computers designed for beingness AI and robotics.

The institution has been iterating connected these robot brains for a fewer years now, pinch each exemplary much powerful than nan last. The newest procreation is powered by NVIDIA's Blackwell GPU architecture and offers 7.5 times much AI compute and 3.5 times greater power ratio than its predecessor, nan Jetson Orin. These chips tin tally generative AI models, including ample connection and ocular models, to thief robots construe nan world astir them. “We've built Jetson Thor for nan millions of developers moving connected robotic systems that interact pinch and progressively style nan beingness world,” said NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang.

The module is powered by NVIDIA's full-stack Jetson package platform, which is purpose-built for beingness AI and robotics applications. The institution counts Amazon, Meta, Agility Robotics and Boston Dynamics among its robotics clients utilizing Jetson chips, which should springiness you an thought of who nan target assemblage for this exertion is. The Jetson AGX Thor is now connected waste for $3,499 arsenic a developer kit, and NVIDIA will waste nan Thor T5000 modules for installation successful production-ready robots. These will beryllium sold astatine a wholesale value of $2,999 per module for a minimum bid of 1,000 aliases more.
