London Innovates XR Tech with Advantech's latest GPU Server

Location: London

Introduction

A London-based client is leveraging Advantech's cutting-edge GPU server solution to drive innovation in the field of XR application development. Extended Reality (XR) applications combine or modify the properties of Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR) to create an immersive visual experience within a variety of business sectors, including live performances, streaming, art, education, fashion, healthcare, and many more. Advantech's SKY-602E3 GPU server, in conjunction with the NVIDIA A6000 GPU, is empowering the client by providing a cost effective, powerful, space saving solution to create interactive and high-quality XR experiences and products for their clients.

System Requirements

Developing high-quality XR applications requires powerful GPU cards, high-performance processors with a high core count to handle large amounts of data, and compact server designs to optimize space utilization. Powerful, high-capacity memory, such as DDR5, is also necessary to handle and manage the workload created by XR applications, but must also be compact enough to fit into busy, high traffic areas such as hospitals, offices, performance areas, or modern homes. 

System Description

The SKY-602E3 GPU server is equipped with an AMD EPYC™ 8004 Series processor, assuring optimal processing power. It boasts a memory arrangement comprising 6 DDR5 ECC/RDIMM slots, delivering solid and dependable performance for tasks heavy on data, such as creating XR, virtual production, and live events applications.

The SKY-602E3 GPU server excels in graphics processing for AI applications with four PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, providing high bandwidth for demanding tasks.
