Advantech Launches MIC-733-AO Edge Generative AI System to Accelerate Development

Advantech introduces the MIC-733-AO Edge Generative AI System, powered by NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin™, to revolutionize generative AI development at the edge.

Advantech, a leading provider of industrial edge AI solutions, proudly announces the successful demonstration of Generative AI capabilities with the MIC-733-AO system, based on NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Orin™. This milestone showcases the advantages of leveraging edge-based Generative AI over traditional cloud-based approaches, offering immediate responsiveness, enhanced security, and reduced internet costs. With the MIC-733-AO Edge Generative AI System, developers can significantly accelerate development time and create customized AI models tailored to their specific needs.

Features of MIC-733-AO Edge Generative AI System

The MIC-733-AO system, powered by NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin™, efficiently supports various Generative AI models, including large language models (LLMs), vision language models (VLMs), vision transformers (ViTs), and image generation capabilities. By leveraging NVIDIA Generative AI models from the Jetson AI lab, developers can create, customize, and deploy AI models directly at the edge, eliminating the need for cloud-based processing.

The system’s high AI performance and multiple video interfaces, such as IP cameras, USB/gigE industrial cameras, GMSL cameras, and LiDAR, enable seamless operation of edge-based Generative AI models. Its robust thermal design ensures reliable performance even under full capacity operation.

Advantages of Edge-based Generative AI

Edge-based Generative AI offers several key advantages over cloud-based solutions:

Immediate Response: Edge computing enables prompt AI responses without delays associated with cloud uploads.

Information Security: Data remains within the edge system, mitigating cybersecurity risks associated with cloud data transmission.

Stable Network Connection: Operable without a wireless network, the edge system ensures uninterrupted functionality, unlike cloud-based AI.

Low Transmission Costs: Edge AI incurs minimal transmission costs, making it more cost-effective than cloud uploads.

Future Outlook

Generative AI at the edge represents the future of AI development, offering high responsiveness and low-latency capabilities. The MIC-733-AO Edge Generative AI System, in collaboration with NVIDIA Generative AI models, provides developers with a straightforward solution for building edge-based Generative AI applications.
