Neousys Frame Grabbers: Integrate AI into Legacy x86 Systems via a Single PCIe Expansion Slot

Enhance Your Existing x86 Inspection System with AI – Using Just One PCIe Slot

In modern manufacturing environments, integrating AI into machine vision systems is quickly becoming essential. From improving defect detection and inspection accuracy to enabling predictive quality control, artificial intelligence unlocks powerful new capabilities on the factory floor.

However, upgrading a legacy x86-based inspection system can be challenging. Limited power budgets, constrained PCIe slot availability, and the cost and complexity of replacing reliable systems are common roadblocks.

At BVM, we understand the need to enhance – rather than replace – proven rule-based systems. That’s why we proudly offer innovative AI hardware from Neousys Technology, a leading manufacturer of rugged embedded computing platforms.

A Smarter, Simpler AI Upgrade Path

For industrial users, replacing a stable inspection platform with a completely new AI-enabled solution is often not practical. Instead, the preferred approach is to augment existing systems by adding AI-based capabilities – like real-time defect detection, anomaly classification, or intelligent decision-making – on top of the current rule-based process.

But traditional upgrades requiring discrete GPUs and frame grabbers often exceed available PCIe slots and power limits, particularly in compact embedded systems. Additional hardware also complicates thermal management, making integration more difficult.

The Neousys AI Frame Grabber: AI Inference in a Single PCIe Slot

To address these challenges, Neousys has developed an industry-first: NVIDIA Jetson-powered intelligent frame grabber cards that delivers up to 100 TOPS of AI inference performance. These all-in-one cards fits into a single PCIe slot and includes integrated interfaces for USB 3.2 and PoE+ cameras – eliminating the need for separate GPUs or frame grabbers.
