Strengths and trade-offs
Our analysisStrengths
Small and frugal with power.
Well understood after years in use.
Enough for running a trained vision model on the robot.
Trade-offs
Being discontinued.
About a fifth of the AI performance of the newer Orin NX.
Cannot run Nvidia's newest software.
Why robot makers choose it
Our readThe CORE I/O was designed when this was Nvidia's current small computer. Industrial products change slowly, because customers value a part that stays the same for years over the newest one.
This is our reasoning from the public facts. No maker has confirmed it.
Robots using it
