Featuring high-bandwidth networking, extensive camera and I/O support, and industrial-grade durability, the platform is fully optimized for NVIDIA's robotics and AI software stack—bridging the gap between cloud-scale AI and real-world edge deployment
TAIPEI, Taiwan, Jan. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Lanner Electronics, a global leader in rugged Edge AI hardware, today announced the launch of the EAI-I351, a robotic AI platform engineered for the next era of physical AI. Built on NVIDIA Jetson Thor system-on-module (SoM), the EAI-I351 is designed to deliver server-class performance for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), heavy-duty industrial vehicles, and edge-native generative AI applications.
As physical AI workloads demand exponentially higher compute for real-time reasoning and sensor fusion, the EAI-I351 bridges the gap between data center architectures and the rugged edge.
NVIDIA Blackwell Architecture at the Edge
The EAI-I351 leverages NVIDIA Jetson Thor, powered by NVIDIA Blackwell GPU architecture. This platform delivers a generational leap in performance, offering up to 2,070 FP4 TFLOPS of AI compute within a highly efficient 130W power envelope.
Compared to its predecessor, NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, NVIDIA Jetson Thor series provides:
- 7.5x greater AI compute performance.
- 3.5x improved energy efficiency.
- A dedicated transformer engine optimized for running multi-modal generative AI models and Large Language Models (LLMs) locally.
The system incorporates a suite of dedicated accelerators, including a third-generation Programmable Vision Accelerator (PVA), optical flow accelerators, and dual encoders/decoders, ensuring low-latency processing for complex visual tasks.
High-Bandwidth Connectivity and Sensor Fusion
Recognizing the bandwidth requirements of modern autonomous systems, Lanner has engineered the EAI-I351 with high-speed networking and extensive sensor interfaces. The platform is available in two core configurations based on the compute module:
- NVIDIA Jetson T5000: 128GB Unified Memory, 2070 FP4 TFLOPS.
- NVIDIA Jetson T4000: 64GB Unified Memory, 1200 FP4 TFLOPS.
To support high-throughput data transmission, the system offers flexible network I/O configurations, including 1x QSFP28 (4 × 25GbE or 3 × 25GbE, depending on SKU) paired with 1x 5GbE RJ45.
For visual perception and sensor fusion, the EAI-I351 is equipped with 8x GMSL2 deserializers, enabling direct connectivity for high-resolution automotive cameras. Additional I/O includes 4x USB 3.2 Gen1 and 4x Digital I/O (DIO) for legacy device integration.
Ruggedized for Physical AI Deployment
Designed for harsh industrial environments, the EAI-I351 supports a wide operating temperature range of -25°C to 70°C. It ensures seamless cloud-to-edge communication via 2x M.2 expansion slots, accommodating Wi-Fi and 5G/LTE connectivity modules.
The platform is fully optimized for NVIDIA AI software stack, including NVIDIA Isaac for robotics simulation and deployment, NVIDIA Metropolis for vision AI, and NVIDIA Holoscan for real-time sensor processing. It also supports agentic AI workflows, such as Video Search and Summarization (VSS) using NVIDIA Cosmos Reason.
