Go to Market with Confidence with AAEON’s Qualified Intel® AI Edge Systems
Meeting rigorous benchmarks for real-world workload readiness and interoperability with Intel’s Edge AI Libraries, AAEON’s UP Xtreme i14 Edge and PICO-MTU4-SEMI have been officially designated as Intel® AI Edge Systems as part of the Intel® Edge System Qualification (ESQ) program.
With this certification, solution builders can be confident in the performance, reliability, and scalability of AAEON’s Intel® AI Edge Systems when deploying them within applications ranging from machine vision to industrial robotics, all while reducing time-to-market.
UP Xtreme i14 Edge
The UP Xtreme i14 Edge offers advanced features such as four simultaneous displays, a Raspberry Pi-compatible 40-pin GPIO header, and Ethernet supporting Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), making it capable of fully leveraging the game changing Intel Core Ultra platform’s integrated CPU, GPU, and NPU. Designed for professional developers, the system also supports AAEON’s new UP AI Toolkit for the integration of cross-platform AI frameworks and advanced hardware accelerators, simplifying model deployment.
PICO-MTU4-SEMI
At just 108mm x 95mm x 43mm, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI combines small size with low power draw and long-term stability. Despite its Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 125U platform offering a remarkable 12-core, 14-threads with 21 TOPs of on-device AI inferencing performance, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI is able to maintain an ultra-low power footprint. With fanless operation and a host of on-device interfaces for peripheral communication, these characteristics make the system the ideal for deployment as the central unit of smart robotics, AGV, or smart city solutions. Through the Intel® ESQ program, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI is validated for compatibility with multiple application frameworks, libraries, tools, and reference implementations, enabling partners to accelerate the creation of AI solutions across edge markets.
