The Rigel Edge Supercomputer brings the power of NVIDIA HGX A100 SXM GPUs to the rugged edge. The HGX A100 4-GPU backplane delivers 78 teraFLOPS of FP64 HPC performance using third generation NVLINK technology. The GPUs are integrated with OSS PCIe Gen 4.0 expansion technology to take advantage of the latest AMD 3rd Gen EPYC processors while offering four PCIe Gen 4.0 x16 expansion slots for high speed network interconnect, NVMe storage, or FPGA sensor capture. The optimized PCIe architecture enables maximum data throughput, avoiding bandwidth bottlenecks. Rigel’s lightweight, rugged, thermally optimized and compact design bring the power of the datacenter to the rugged edge—whether airborne, marine, or terrestrial.

The Cernis small form factor (SFF) NVIDIA Jetson Orin with integrated PCI Express 4.0 switch fabric forms the keystone of an expandable edge AI mission computing system to handle today’s highest end AI applications including sensor fusion, natural language processing, autonomy, situational awareness, and signal intelligence in a SWaP optimized package. While Cernis is a powerful AI mission computer on its own, its real power is unleashed when Cernis is accompanied by up to 24 of the Donati line of NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX mission computers using an OSS PCIe fabric* to form the lowest latency, highest speed mission compute system. The Cernis/Donati scalable compute system is built from the ground up to tackle multiple performance hungry AI applications in harsh vehicle environments. With AI inference performance up to 6.6 PetaOPS, data fabric speeds of over 150GB/s and advanced PCIe switching features, the Cernis/Donati scalable AI SFF compute system brings the power of the datacenter to the rugged edge.
