Edge AI is revolutionizing industrial processes - not tomorrow, but today.
Whether in manufacturing, logistics or quality assurance, more and more companies are relying on decentralized computing power directly at the point of data collection. Thanks to edge AI and modern edge computing industrial solutions, data can be processed locally – quickly, efficiently and securely. The days when large volumes of data were only analyzed via the cloud are over. Modern AI edge computers and AI box PCs make it possible to integrate artificial intelligence directly into industrial processes.
The CORE 5 Ultra is a compact and robust entry-level solution for these requirements – an industrial-grade mini PC that has been specially developed for initial AI inference applications at the edge. Whether simple image processing or basic predictive maintenance AI scenarios: The CORE 5 Ultra impresses with solid performance, low power consumption and reliable operation – ideal for use directly on the machine, on the production line or in an autonomous system.
For more demanding applications such as multi-camera based quality control or advanced industrial AI scenarios, the NOVA R680E comes into play. This powerful AI box PC is the ideal mid-range platform for edge AI in industry. Equipped with state-of-the-art hardware, it offers enough reserves for complex tasks in areas such as machine vision, predictive maintenance or automated logistics. Thanks to its scalability, it is also ideally equipped for future requirements.
