What you'll learn:

  • Insight into NVIDIA's Jetson Thor platform and what it delivers in terms of AI performance, memory, and power for edge AI and robotics.
  • Why the high-core-count Arm CPU, Blackwell GPU, and advanced I/O suit the Jetson Thor for real-time physical-AI systems. 
  • How it can be utilized to scale embedded systems from multi-camera sensor fusion to generative-AI workflows at the edge.

At the recent embedded world North America, NVIDIA introduced its latest embedded system module: the Jetson Thor series. Designed around the company's Blackwell GPU architecture, the Jetson Thor modules deliver up to 2,070 FP4 TFLOPS of AI compute, support up to 128 GB of LPDDR5X memory, and offer a configurable power curve from 40 to 130 W.

On the CPU side, the platform includes a 14-core Arm Neoverse-V3AE CPU, paired with a 2,560-core Blackwell GPU with 96 5th-Gen Tensor cores. Memory bandwidth is quoted at approximately 273 GB/s with a 256-bit LPDDR5X memory interface.

The Jetson Thor, in an AGX Developer Kit form, includes a 1-TB NVMe M.2 (Key M) slot, high-speed I/O including 4x 25 GbE networking, and carrier board features to support real-time multi-sensor fusion and robotics workflows.

The Jetson Thor marks a leap in computational and sensor-processing capabilities that enables physical AI workflows, including real-time inference, multi-camera arrays, active perception, generative AI models at the edge, and I/O integration. Thanks to the modular format, it can be scaled from prototype to production across robotics, automation, smart infrastructure, and other embedded systems.
