Nvidia (NVDA.US) announced on Monday the launch of its latest robot chip, Jetson AGX Thor, called a 'robot brain', with a developer kit priced at US$3,499. The first batch will be shipped next month, and the chips can be used for developing prototype robot. After completing the prototype design, Nvidia will sell the Thor T5000 module for mass production, with orders of over 1,000 units at a price of US$2,999 each. Jetson Thor uses Nvidia's latest Blackwell graphics processing technology, offering a computing speed 7.5 times faster than its previous generation. It supports generative AI models, including large language models and visual models, aiding humanoid robots in understanding the environment. The chip is equipped with 128GB of memory to support big AI model operations. Nvidia Vice President Deepu Talla said that Nvidia does not produce robots or cars, but supports the entire industry through chips and software infrastructure. Nvidia noted that companies such as Agility Robotics, Amazon and Meta have adopted its chips, and that it has invested in several robotics startups. Although the robotics business currently accounts for only about 1% of the company's revenue, it is growing rapidly. Quarterly sales in the auto and robotics divisions increased by 72% YoY to US$570 million in May. Nvidia added that Jetson Thor can be applied to self-driving vehicles, and runs the Drive OS system specifically tuned for cars. AASTOCKS Financial News Website: www.aastocks.com |
