NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Benchmarks¶
Fig.1. Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit
With the help of NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier developer kit, many customers already are developing and deploying end-to-end AI robotics and edge applications in the fields of aerial inspection, city mapping and more.
The AGX Xavier is supported by NVIDIA JetPack and DeepStream SDKs, as well as CUDA®, cuDNN, and TensorRT software libraries.
The power of the new NVIDIA Xavier processor offers more than 20X the performance and 10X the energy efficiency of its predecessor, the NVIDIA Jetson TX2.
The dev kit provides the tools needed to get started right away and XIMEA team tested various cameras with the results listed below.
