Taipei, September 25, 2024 - Advantech (2395, TW), a leading provider of edge computing solutions, introduces the AIR-310, a compact edge AI inference system featuring an MXM GPU card. Powered by 12th/13th/14th Gen Intel® Core™ 65W desktop processors, the AIR-310 delivers up to 12.99 TFLOPS of scalable AI performance via the NVIDIA Quadro® 2000A GPU card in a 1.5U chassis (215 x 225 x 55 mm). Despite its compact size, it offers versatile connectivity with three LAN ports and four USB 3.0 ports, enabling seamless integration of sensors and cameras for vision AI applications. The system includes smart fan management, operates in temperatures from 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F), and is shock-resistant, capable of withstanding 3G vibration and 30G shock. Bundled with Intel® Arc™ A370 and NVIDIA A2000 GPUs, it is certified to IEC 61000-6-2, IEC 61000-6-4, and CB/UL standards, ensuring stable 24/7 operation in harsh environments, including space-constrained or mobile equipment. The AIR-310 supports Windows 11, Linux Ubuntu 24.04, and the Edge AI SDK, enabling accelerated inference deployment for applications such as factory inspections, real-time video surveillance, GenAI/LLM, and medical imaging.
Scalable AI with Multi-tasking Capabilities for Vision Applications
The AIR-310, with its high-performance computing and scalable AI capabilities, excels at handling multi-tasking applications. In commercial complexes, it boosts security by integrating vision and language models into surveillance systems, enabling real-time analysis of visual and textual data for more accurate threat detection, improved monitoring, and proactive response. In the medical field, the AIR-310 also supports advanced imaging applications, enabling the reconstruction and analysis of CT scans and X-rays for accurate diagnoses and preoperative assessments. By generating detailed reports on detected abnormalities and planning surgical paths, it enhances both healthcare efficiency and surgical accuracy.
Streamlined Vision AI and GenAI/LLM Inference Deployment with Comprehensive Software Support
The AIR-310 MXM GPU system delivers both high computing power and a compact design with long-term support. By using various GPU cards, developers can easily take advantage of software ecosystems like Intel® OpenVINO™, NVIDIA CUDA, and TensorRT to accelerate AI model development and deployment. The AIR-310 seamlessly integrates with the latest Windows 11 and Linux Ubuntu 24.04 operating systems, making it adaptable for a wide range of industries. It also supports Advantech's Edge AI SDK (version 3.0.0), providing a comprehensive environment for developing and running Vision AI and GenAI/LLM inference applications. This SDK eliminates compatibility issues between software and hardware and includes a no-code AI inference performance evaluation feature, significantly reducing setup time and speeding up the development process.
