NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit (32GB)

Happy to get this item

Kind of silly even having reviews on these Jetson products. It's Nvidia Jetson. Great stuff. It is what it is. If you're not an engineer and don't know what this is for already, don't buy one! The negative reviews on these products are hysterical. Nvidia did a super job designing this hardware, it comes complete with solid examples and support, I'm a hardware systems guy, not software, and I still got it up and running without any issues and was able to build and benchmark their examples on the CUDA cores. I was able to build and run an existing FFTW benchmark that uses the Linux cores, and then compare that to the CUDA cuFFT examples to see the improvement--really awesome and impressive product!

Excelente procesador, una pena que necesite de un adaptador especial para usar cámaras csi que se vende por separado.

Solides Entwicklungskit mit gutem Funktionsumfang auf Basis von Ubuntu 18.04 (für aarch64). Achtung: KEIN PC. Die meiste Software muss ab Quellcode kompiliert werden. Nur geeignet für Entwickler, die bereits mit SoCs Erfahrung haben. Viel hilfereiche Information auf den NVIDIA Entwicklerforen. Das mitgelieferte Betriebssystem "Jetpack" ist z.B. in der Lage, R und die CRAN Pakete fast ohne Besonderheiten zu kompilieren. Probleme treten nur auf, wenn Compileroptionen spezfisch für andere Prozessoren in den Build-scripts festgeschrieben wurden. So z.B. einige Pakete von Bioconductor nur nach Modifikation der Compileroptionen zu kompilieren. Hat tatsächlich die Leistung einer GPU-ausgestatteten "Workstation". Läuft bei gut eingestellter Lüftung monatelang stabil, auch unter Last kein Überhitzen. Zahlreiche Erweiterungsmöglichkeiten, funktionieren alle. Sicherlich interessant für alle, die die CPU/GPU Code entwickeln möchten. Das Developer kit ist auch für den produktiven Einsatz geeignet - z.B. in Laborumgebungen.

Overall, I like Agx Xiavier a lot better because it allows me to develop as if I am on a regular desktop. The nano is just way too slow and it even have hard time running VScode. I got a bad board on my first purchase. It does run but crashes randomly when left idle. The log message from the system indicates "kernel oops". After digging through NVIDIA forum, I was sure I got a lemon. In addition to crash problem, the fan is making an random "clicking" noise. At first I am not sure if this is a typical thing for PWM fans but after I made my second purchase I know for sure that is abnormal. If your fan does not produce a consistent sound, something might be wrong. Here is my advice to make sure your board is good. After you receive the product, load the OS, attach internet, open a browser text editor or something, and let it sit for at least 6 hours or more (over night is better). After that, if there is no sign of rebooting, then you should be good to go. If you do notice rebooting, check if there is any kernel crash file under "/var/log". Open crash file and search for "kernel oops". If it does show up, don't waste your time and just return the product.

Loaded OS to Jetson device from a VMware Workstation VMUSB. Lost connection, but manual re-connection allowed loading to continue. Running in 30 watt mode gets pretty hot - no fan included (would be nice if it had at least an attachment point and power connection for one). Fast and stable. good for medium training sets (haven't tried large - may also be fine). Great compute power for the watts - just a little hot if running full-out. It is possible to run in 15 watt mode, but has less power.
