ADLINK Technology NEON-2000-JNX AI smart camera

ADLINK Technology has launched the NEON-2000-JNX series, an industrial AI smart camera that integrates the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX module. The camera’s high performance, small form factor and ease of development are said to open the door for innovative AI vision solutions in manufacturing and logistics, as well as other edge applications. The camera is an all-in-one solution, eliminating the traditional need for complex integration of the image sensor module, cables and AI box PC.

The NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX provides more than 10 times the performance of its predecessor, the Jetson TX2. The NEON-2000-JNX series integrates the processor into an all-in-one device, designed to simplify the deployment process and speed up the time to market.

The series comes with all necessary components and an optimised OS already integrated. It supports six sensor configurations in total between 1.2 and 8 MP to deliver raw data and complete image detail for machine vision, including four image sensors. Two MIPI image sensors reduce CPU loading and support a high operating temperature range, and an embedded image signal processor (ISP) provides enhanced and environment-adaptive imaging to improve AI accuracy. Integration overcomes EMC, EDS, vibration and thermal problems, interface compatibility, image drops caused by faulty camera and OS settings, and other common reliability issues.

The AI smart camera is pre-installed with ADLINK’s edge vision analytics software, EVA SDK (Edge Vision Analytics Software Development Kit), creating an optimised platform designed to reduce proof-of-concept (PoC) schedules and speed time to market.
