AI has demonstrated its enormous potential in traffic, safety, and manufacturing applications, but until now it has remained in the early stages of implementation in heavy industry. These sectors are typically characterized by costly 24/7 operations in harsh environments that can be hazardous to workers. Autonomous AI-powered equipment represents an opportunity to improve this situation by increasing efficiency, accuracy, and safety in these sectors. In this regard, Advantech's robust MIC-715-OX distributed AI system has been designed with these needs and AI applications in vehicles in mind.
The Advantech MIC-715-OX is based on the NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ NX module, which delivers AI performance up to 100 TOPS. It features M12 connectors, operates in a wide temperature range (-25 ~ 60 °C; 77 ~ 140 °F), and boasts IP67 protection. All I/O on the MIC-715-OX are lockable, providing advanced vibration resistance. The MIC-715-OX can connect to cameras via an integrated PoE port and will soon support up to six Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link 2 (GMSL2) cameras.
The Advantech MIC-715-OX incorporates a vehicle protection mechanism for heavy industry applications, reducing the risk of engine flooding and ensuring system operation under conditions such as unstable input voltage. Users can also manually adjust the ignition timing of this solution via connected machines. As a member of the MIC-AI series, the MIC-715-OX offers flexible I/O, diverse peripherals, excellent longevity, and a board support package (BSP). The MIC-715-OX also supports simultaneous Wi-Fi, 4G/LTE, and 5G connections.
