Neousys’s NRU 110V Series NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Edge AI platform supporting 8x GMSL cameras for vehicle applications Backplane Systems Technology presents Neousys’s NRU-110V Series, which is a Jetson AGX Xavier computer supporting GMSL cameras that can act as a camera sensor hub for autonomous driving, a control unit for autonomous mobile robots (AMR), or a video transcoding unit for teleoperation of unmanned ground vehicles. The support of GMSL cameras equips NRU-110V with vision capability. Taking advantage of automotive cameras featuring IP67 waterproof characteristics, high dynamic range, auto white balance, and LED flickering mitigation, NRU-110V can obtain high-quality images regardless of lighting conditions. NRU-110V further integrates various I/O interfaces to interact with different sensors on autonomous machines. It has a 10Gb ethernet to stream raw images in real-time to another powerful GPU computer performing perception, and a CAN bus interface for in-vehicle communication, or to connect an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to localise and determine orientation and position. Additionally, NRU-110V offers RS-232 plus dedicated GPS PPS input for connecting an external GPS module, M.2 NVMe slot for storage extension, mini-PCIe for WiFi/ 4G module connectivity, and isolated DIO for generic controls. Combining eight GMSL automotive camera support, significant TFLOPS inference performance, multiple sensor interfaces, and 10GbE data transmission, the NRU-110V is a rugged edge AI computer connected to a variety of sensors to fulfill perception and planning on the same platform. It is suitable for AI-based vision applications that require continuous interactions with surroundings.

Beckhoff presents the EL2564 | EtherCAT Terminal, 4-channel LED output, 5…48 V DC, 4 A, RGBW The EL2564 digital output terminal controls LEDs with integrated series resistor via an adjustable (ground-switching) PWM signal. Common anode RGBW LEDs can be controlled with the four channels. But also the operation with four LEDs of the same colour is possible with the terminal. The terminal has a flexible input voltage of 5…48 V DC. The output voltage corresponds to the input voltage. For the operation of multicolour LEDs the colour portion per channel is adjustable. Therefore, any colour mix can be realised. In addition to the colour mixing per channel, the adjustment of the total brightness over all channels is also possible. Another parameter that can be adjusted is the frequency. By setting the frequency in a range of 1…16,000 Hz, stroboscopic effects can be avoided. Furthermore, visible flashes can be realized by the low frequencies.
Recommended uses: • The EL2564 is a suitable choice for simple continuous light applications with RGBW LEDs in voltage mode • The 1st generation EL2595 LED terminal is often sufficient for simple lighting tasks • Tzhe EL2596 and EL2596-0010 are its successors with a greatly increased performance and are thus suitable for applications where there is a demand for high-precision control
Key features: • flexible input voltage 5…48 V DC • adjustable colour component per channel with multicolour LEDs (adjustment of the duty cycle) • adjustable total brightness across all channels • adjustable frequency 1…16.000 Hz, for the avoidance of stroboscopic effects and the realisation of visible flashes at low frequencies
