AI Developer Gear — Edge Compute & Dev Hardware

Our primary edge compute platform. 67 TOPS, JetPack 6.2, CUDA 12.6, TensorRT 10.3. Runs YOLOv8 real-time, Isaac ROS SLAM, full ROS2 stack on the guard drone.

Boot drive for Jetson via M.2 slot. Dramatically faster than microSD for Isaac ROS container pulls and model storage. Mandatory upgrade.

Silent 40mm 5V fan for Jetson heatsink upgrade. The stock fan is undersized for sustained GPU inference load. Active cooling prevents thermal throttling mid-flight.

Compact GaN charger for Jetson USB-C power. Clean regulated power better than barrel-jack adapters. Supports 65W negotiation.

Multi-device Bluetooth, ultra-fast scroll wheel, quiet clicks. Switch between Jetson, desktop, and laptop with one button. Daily driver on our build bench.

Same drive we use in Jetson, also great for desktop AI workstation secondary storage. Dataset and model cache drive.

Sony 1/2.55" sensor, PDAF autofocus, 1080p/60fps, dual noise-canceling mics, privacy cover. What we use for video calls and remote demos. Works plug-and-play on Linux/Jetson.

Hardware MFA for Azure portal, GitHub, and any federated identity. Tap NFC on phone or USB on desktop. Mandatory for CMMC-aligned environments.

Power backup for AI workstation. Running Isaac Sim on RTX 3070 with GPU load can trip surge protectors — a UPS prevents mid-simulation shutdowns.
