…vehicles], and UUVs [unmanned underwater vehicles].” “The motherboard supports NVIDIA Jetson and STM332 MCU [microcontroller units] for real-time control and I/O,” said Cross. “For example, to upgrade a camera for low-light sensitivity, we provide the basic software for adding software and increasing performance. Software updates are all packaged.” How much do marine robotics vendors rely on proprietary software? “It is an issue in our space,” acknowledged Cross. “Others have closed ecosystems and are harder to modify. Some of the large working-class ROVs in oil and gas are multimillion-dollar robots that are deployed off large ships that have control centers with…

…with the latest advances in compute capabilities, such as NVIDIA’s Jetson product line and cutting-edge AI, such as deep neural networks, it becomes possible to structure the information so as to extract troves of useful features,” says Carlos Asmat, lead robotics engineer at Piaggio Fast Forward. “Given the increasing abundance of computational power, it becomes more advantageous to use sensors that can capture as much information as possible while remaining affordable.” Despite these advances, sensing technologies currently supporting smart home robots represent an early, transitional stage of development. Designers and users alike can expect steady change in this sector. “As…

…Crupi, vice president of edge analytics at Greenwave Systems. “NVIDIA just announced a GPU-based edge board called Jetson Nano for $99. And Qualcomm’s AI Engine runs on its newer generation Snapdragon-based boards. Ultimately, the best processor type will depend on power requirements, cost and use cases.” One Way to Eliminate the Bottleneck As impressive as the advances in the digital sector are, some developers have begun to look beyond conventional technology to explore new types of processors and computing architectures. In their search, designers increasingly place a premium on technologies that promise to deliver high throughput and excel at handling…
