Architecture

The CHARM-100NX uses a FPGA for high speed, low latency video interfacing and processing combined with the power of the Xavier NX embedded processing which includes the following resources:
• Hexa core ARM CPU
• 384 CUDA core + 48 Tensor core GPU
• Video accelerator for video encode/decode The Xavier NX provides more than 3 times the AI processing performance of the earlier Jetson TX2 processor and processes two concurrent streams of standard definition or high definition video, selected from the multiple video inputs. The output video is genlocked to the input video and is comprised of low latency video from the selected input combined with processed video and graphics from the Xavier.

Applications

• Security and surveillance
• UAV & UGV
• Manned vehicles

Enclosure

A rugged enclosure is available for the CHARM-100NX. The enclosure includes an input power supply which allows the CHARM-100NX to be powered directly from vehicle and aircraft power sources. Customized connector configurations are also available for specific applications.
