Nvidia Unveils Jetson Orin Nano 2 for Edge AI Robotics
Nvidia has released the Jetson Orin Nano 2, a new robotics computer designed for entry-level edge AI. This device is expected to enable millions of developers worldwide to build robots, delivery and inspection drones, and vision AI systems for frontier physical AI applications.
The Jetson Orin Nano 2 delivers 2x the inference performance of its predecessor in the same form factor and consumes 40 percent less power at the same performance. This new computer features 78 trillion operations per second of AI compute, 8GB of memory, and an 8-core Arm CPU.
Cognex, Doosan Bobcat, and Matic are among the first to adopt and explore Jetson Orin Nano 2. AAEON, ADLINK, Advantech, and other companies are building carrier boards, hardware systems, customized AI software, and reference solutions to help customers accelerate time to market.
Nvidia's open software stack and Nvidia Jetson agent skills enable developers to run the latest large language models and vision language models optimized for memory-efficient edge inference. The availability of the Nvidia Jetson Orin Nano 2 module and developer kit is expected in the first half of 2027.
