In their AI segment, Toradex showcased the capabilities of the Aquila AM69 System on Module (SoM), equipped with four Neural Processing Units (NPUs). This configuration efficiently processed inputs from eight simultaneous camera feeds, highlighting the platform’s robust AI processing capabilities suitable for demanding applications.
Another real-world application demonstrated was the deployment of the Verdin iMX8M Plus in marine environments. This system performed semantic segmentation to detect and map oceanic debris, illustrating the adaptability of Toradex’s solutions to rugged and mission-critical scenarios.
A standout exhibit was the T-Bot, a robot exemplifying heterogeneous multicore processing. It utilized a Cortex-A core running Linux alongside an M core responsible for real-time balancing tasks. This architecture ensured continuous operation even in the event of a Linux system crash, emphasizing system reliability.
Toradex also addressed the forthcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act, highlighting their proactive measures to assist clients in achieving compliance. Their offerings include secure boot processes and continuous vulnerability monitoring, ensuring products meet stringent security standards.
The company’s collaboration with Texas Instruments was evident in their support for various TI starter kits, such as the AM62 and AM62P. This partnership facilitates secure over-the-air updates and subsystem enhancements, streamlining development processes for clients.
An overview of Toradex’s product lineup revealed a focus on scalability and compatibility. The Verdin family, for instance, offers pin-compatible modules, allowing seamless transitions between different processors and performance levels. This flexibility enables tailored solutions without extensive redesigns.
Additionally, Toradex’s commitment to open-source principles was showcased through their provision of design files for carrier boards. Clients can download, modify, and manufacture these designs, accelerating development cycles and reducing time-to-market.
