ADLINK NEON-2000-JNX series industrial AI smart camera

ADLINK Technology has launched the NEON-2000-JNX series, an industrial AI smart camera that integrates the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX module. The camera’s high performance, small form factor and ease of development open the door for innovative AI vision solutions in manufacturing, logistics, retail, service, agriculture, smart city, health care and life sciences, and other edge applications. It is an all-in-one solution, eliminating the traditional need for complex integration of the image sensor module, cables and AI box PC.

The NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX provides more than 10x the performance of its predecessor, the NVIDIA Jetson TX2. The camera integrates this performance in an all-in-one rugged and compact device, designed to simplify the deployment process and speed up time to market. It is a hassle-free, powerful product for edge AI applications and AI software providers.

The series comes with all necessary components and an optimised OS already integrated and well validated. It supports six sensor configurations to deliver raw data and complete image detail for machine vision, including four image sensors with Basler. Two MIPI image sensors are designed to reduce CPU loading and support a higher operating temperature range, while an embedded image signal processor (ISP) provides enhanced and environment-adaptive imaging for AI accuracy. Integration overcomes EMC/EDS/vibration/thermal problems, interface compatibility, image drops caused by fault camera and OS settings, and other common issues.

The AI smart camera is pre-installed with ADLINK’s edge vision analytics software, EVA SDK (Edge Vision Analytics Software Development Kit), creating an optimised platform that should reduce proof-of-concept (PoC) schedules and speed up time to market.
