Neousys NRU-170-PPC: Transforming Edge AI with its Durable, Waterproof Construction

The Neousys NRU-170-PPC series stands out as an innovative solution in the field of edge AI computing. Designed with a rugged, waterproof IP66-rated chassis and powered by NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX or Orin™ Nano, these compact AI panel PCs are tailored for applications demanding reliability, high performance, and environmental durability. Let’s explore why the NRU-170-PPC is the perfect choice for industries such as agriculture, autonomous vehicles, food processing, and outdoor robotics.

Unmatched AI Processing Power

At the heart of the NRU-170-PPC is the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX, capable of delivering up to 100 TOPS of AI inference performance. This processing power enables real-time decision-making, perfect for applications such as:

  • Smart agriculture: Optimizing crop management and livestock monitoring.
  • Autonomous systems: Supporting ADAS for off-highway vehicles and marine vessels.
  • Food processing: Enabling AI-driven quality inspection.

With the ability to transcode up to 18 simultaneous 1080P video streams, the NRU-170-PPC ensures seamless AI inference and video analysis, even in the most demanding environments.

IP66 Waterproof Design for Harsh Environments

The NRU-170-PPC is designed to thrive in tough conditions. Its IP66-rated housing provides full protection against water and dust, while the 10.1″ high-brightness touchscreen (1000 cd/m²) remains operational even in wet environments. Whether in a rain-soaked field or a high-humidity food processing plant, the unit’s ruggedness ensures uninterrupted operation.
