Portwell has launched the PJAI-100-ON, a rugged and compact embedded system powered by the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano SOM and designed for demanding industrial environments. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -20°C to 60°C with a fanless, quiet design that requires minimal maintenance. Equipped with dual Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports and M.2 slots for wireless connectivity, the PJAI-100-ON is tailored for Edge AI applications. This system enhances quality control in manufacturing by using advanced optical inspection technology to detect defects, improving quality assurance and reducing production errors.
Previously, we covered other Jetson Orin Nano embedded systems, including Aetina’s AIE-KO21, AIE-KO31, AIE-KN31, and AIE-KN41 and DFI X6-MTH-ORN fanless Edge AI Box computer, as well as Portwell’s WEBS-21J0-ASL another rugged embedded system built around an Intel Atom x7000RE Amstom Lake Nano-ITX motherboard and equipped with an Hailo-8 AI accelerator.
