For those who think AI supercomputers are reserved for mad scientists and billion-dollar corporations, NVIDIA just dropped a curveball. The new Jetson Orin Nano Super is a pint-sized powerhouse that fits in your palm but packs enough performance to make your laptop weep in shame.
This US$249 generative AI marvel promises up to 1.7x better inference performance, cranking out 67 INT8 TOPS with 102GB/s of memory bandwidth. Translation? It’s faster, smarter, and surprisingly affordable—perfect for turning your sci-fi AI dreams into reality without blowing your budget. Whether you’re tinkering with chatbots, training visual AI agents, or plotting a robot takeover (kidding… maybe), the Jetson Orin Nano Super has your back.
Built around an NVIDIA Ampere GPU with tensor cores and a 6-core Arm CPU, this kit is ready for action. It supports multiple AI pipelines and up to four cameras, letting you experiment with high-res images and real-time data streams. Think of it as a Swiss Army knife for AI nerds—compact, versatile, and undeniably cool.
And if you already own the OG Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit, good news: NVIDIA’s software update will pump up your system’s performance too. Everyone gets a glow-up in “Super” mode.
With tools like the NVIDIA Isaac for robotics, Metropolis for vision AI, and Omniverse Replicator for synthetic data, the Jetson Orin Nano Super is your ticket to the cutting edge of generative AI. And let’s not forget its robust developer community, there to inspire and troubleshoot when your robot doesn’t quite take over the world as planned.
Available now for US$249, it’s an AI revolution that fits in your backpack—and maybe even your wallet. Well, what can I say? Taking over the world with AI turns out to be super affordable. Like, who knew, right? Anyhoo, you can find Jetson Orin Nano Super being sold on Amazon, Seeed Studio, Sparkfun, and Arrow.com.
