Impulse is pleased to announce that our long-standing technology partner
Neousys Technology has had three of its embedded computer series certified by Baidu for Paddle X, a development tool that accelerates data processing for the PaddlePaddle deep-learning platform. The embedded computers that have been certified include the Nuvis-7306RT vision computer with vision-specific I/O, the
Nuvo-8000 series of rugged expansion box PCs, and the
Nuvo GC series of edge AI GPU computers. The combination of
Neousys' embedded computers and Baidu's PaddleX / PaddlePaddle can accelerate AI technology developments for a wide range of industry applications including autonomous vehicles, smart
factories, and
smart city development.
Baidu is a multinational technology company specialising in internet and AI technologies. The Baidu deep-learning platform, PaddlePaddle has been adopted by over 1.9 million developers and approximately 84 thousand enterprises worldwide, creating trained models to help develop and improve a wide range of industrial applications. Baidu utilized
Neousys embedded computers for the Apollo project, an open-source autonomous driving solution, and noted that
Neousys GPU computers showed consistency in reliability and performance in adverse conditions.
Compatible and certified
Neousys embedded computers all feature wide temperature capabilities and GPU support. The Nuvis-7306RT is a vision-specific system that includes a lighting controller, camera trigger output, encoder input and digital
I/O for sensors and actuators. The
Nuvo-8000 series supports combinations of five PCIe / PCI slots for different expansion needs, and the
Nuvo GC series includes a plethora of
embedded systems in different form factors, all supporting various GPU inference accelerators from NVIDIA Tesla, Quadro and RTX to meet the demands of different edge AI processing applications.
A Baidu representative says
"Baidu's confidence in Neousys' edge AI platforms derives from previous Baidu Apollo open-source autonomous vehicle partnership. Neousys has always been at the forefront of edge AI technology development by providing unparallel system stability, reliability and operability in harsh environments. Through continuing cooperation with Neousys Technology, we hope to create software/ hardware integrated solutions that can take industrial AI applications to the next level.""As one of the pioneers in industrial edge AI computers, we have been working closely with Baidu. The hardware certification for PaddleX / PaddlePaddle reassures Neousys' position in industrial AI applications and through this cooperation, the solution accelerates edge AI developments to allow our customers to truly enjoy AI efficiency at the edge," says David Dong, Sales Director of
Neousys Technology China.
