 Hi, I'm Jonathan Miller and this is Diamond Systems and I'm here to show you today our latest products that we're showing here at Embedded World 2020. This current product here is our latest product for the NVIDIA Jetson ecosystem. NVIDIA Jetson is a new generation of high-performance GPU, very low-cost, very small size and perfect for embedded applications for AI at the edge and all things like that. The Floyd board here is a carrier board for the Nano and the brand new XAVIER NX module. So the Nano has 128 CUDA cores and the XAVIER NX has 384 cores. These are excellent products for high-performance, low-cost AI at the edge applications. This is a very interesting product because it has these front panel connectors which makes it very easy to put it inside of an enclosure like this system over here. This is the same Nano Floyd carrier board inside of a box that's ready for deployment. So it's high-performance and it's great for AI, stuff like that. It's high-performance, low-cost, small size, lightweight. It has all kinds of camera interfaces. This is the product designed specifically for camera-centric applications. We have two POE camera ports here. We have USB 3.0 that can be used for camera and we also have three MIPI CSI quad-lane camera interfaces for integrated cameras inside of the enclosure. We have all kinds of different... That's a lot of cameras. That's a lot. It's like a self-driving car. Is that many cameras? Yes. It would have typically six cameras. This can handle one of those six-camera 360-degree sensors. What are the other applications? Who's going to take one of these and where are they going to put this? What are these going to be used in applications where people have high-computer requirements? Specifically, it will be for things like camera interfaces, primarily. I think the number one application for a video adjacent is really anything that's image-abased. There's also some machine learning and things like autonomous vehicle navigation and things like that. But typically you will see it where they have to do a lot of real-time parallel processing, which means basically image processing, image recognition, things like that. What's the format of this? This is a custom format created by Vidya, but it's very similar to an SOD memory module. It's about 15 by 70 millimeters approximately. I don't remember the exact number. But the nice thing about this product is that they now have two products with two different levels of performance that have the exact same form factor. So this product is scalable. So you can start out with a lower-end nano and you can upgrade to the higher performance Xavier and X if you need a higher application performance. So you get performance scalability. That's a really nice feature to have in an embedded product. So is this the most advanced, the most powerful you've done so far? The most powerful product is another one. We have two other products for the higher end Xavier module. So if you'd like, I can show you the other Xavier carry boards. Yeah. Okay. I want to come over to here. And this is the remainder of our Vidya product line. So Vidya has also a TX2 module and a Xavier module. This product here is called Elton, as in Elton John. This product is our top-of-the-line rugged high-performance Vidya Jetson carry board. So this is a larger board. This is the Xavier module here. This is the 3D print of the Xavier module to show you what it's like. And then we have a heat spreader here to pull the heat out. This can provide up to 30 tera-ops, 30 times 10 to the 12 operations per second, which is pretty impressive performance compared to anything in the x86 world. This has also a very unique feature, which is PCIe 104 expandability. This gives you PCIe by one and by eight, as well as PCI bus expansion. So if you need additional IO, there's a huge universe of embedded PCIe 104 IO modules from all kinds of companies all around the world that you can plug on to here to get additional functionality. You can get 10 gig ethernet, you can get additional graphics, things like that. So what kind of markets are asking for these? Again, it's everything that is... This could be used for autonomous vehicles because of the higher performance. This could be used for any kind of data manipulation, data processing, image capture, facial recognition, things like that. Are there autonomous devices in farming? Stuff like this? Absolutely. In fact, at the last trade show we went to, right across from our booth, was a demonstration by a company using a product like this for a strawberry picking. So what happens is it has six sides at the same time, so three rows on both sides of the row. It is searching for a strawberry, identifying the strawberry, checking if it's ripe, and then picking it. And all that's being controlled by an AI engine, controlled by Xavier modules. Are you in robots or in drones? We are in a lot of drone applications, we're also in a lot of submarine applications. We have some customers using our products for robot arms to, for example, prevent collision of multiple arms working simultaneously. Another application. So yes, we have all kinds of... And there's a lot of other new boards. Is this other new... Sure, come around. Let me launch this one. Let me show you a brand new concept here. Same concept here. This is also a COM carrier. Well, in this case, this is COM Express. So now we're back to the X86 world. This is our newest product called Gemini. Gemini is a really super product, and I'll tell you why. Because it combines the incredibly successful COM Express with the incredibly successful PC104 for IO expansion. So you get amazing benefits. What you get is performance scalability, because you can buy all different kinds of COMs from different vendors to put on here. You get a long life cycle, because if the COM goes obsolete, you can buy another one to replace it. So you design a product around Gemini, the product will last forever, because it will never go obsolete. And you get to choose performance and price and power consumption that you want for your product. So what kind of boards go in there? Well, like we have Whiskey Lake, which is our basic one, the eighth generation Core i7. You can put BayTrail, Apollo Lake, you can put Ryzen for AMD, almost anything. There's probably 25 companies here selling COM Express modules that you can see. They'll all work on this board. On the top side, we have PCIe104 again, just like you saw on the Elton board. Here we have, again, we have PCIe by one and by 16, and PCIe104 expandability, as well as MiniCard and M.2. So you have this huge range of IO expansion that you combine with the COM Express, so it's super flexible. Because do you have customers using devices, your devices for very long time? So you want to be a future pro? We have showing customers a lot that have long life programs. The number one concern that we have for customers in this market today is the longevity of the product that is like a single board computer. Everybody we talk to, we walk in there and they say, we have a problem. Our single board computer vendor made our product obsolete, looking for a replacement. This conversation happens over and over again. It's the number one concern of people in the embedded market today. So anything you can do to provide longevity in your product line is a win for you and for the customer. How old are your oldest devices? Our oldest current product is from 1998. And it's still out there? Absolutely. We have customers using the designs in our computer boards from the early 2000s that are now looking for solutions. So I'll show you our next product that is designed for that. This here is called Athena 4. Why is it 4? Because there was Athena 1, 2, and 3. And actually, let me show you Athena 1, 2, and 3. They're right here. So here we have, this is the original Athena 1 board right here. It was developed in 2004 using a via Eaton processor. Here is the next generation. And when this chip went obsolete, we switched to the Via Mark and provided increased performance, a few additional IO features, but notice that the layout is almost exactly the same. Same features, same price, everything is the same, but upgraded performance. Then when this chip went obsolete, we went to an Intel Tunnel Creek CPU here. This is Athena 3. Again, same connectors, same features, everything is the same. A little bit of upgraded performance, things like that, more memory. But what we did was we allowed our customers to migrate to newer technology and keep their products alive. Finally, the Tunnel Creek processor went obsolete. So we said, enough is enough, let's switch to a ComExpress module. So now we use ComExpress type 10. And again, we have the same form factor, the same features, everything is the same, same price, same power consumption, but we have dramatic increase in performance and we have basically much longer life cycle. So as you say, the ComExpress is a whole bunch of different solutions. Yes. This is a Baytrail module, but you can later on this year we will have a Whiskey Lake Core i7 8th generation module on top of year 2. We have Core i7 in PC104, who can offer that? This is all x86 solution. This is all x86 based, yes. And you've done a lot of x86 stuff for a long time. Yes, since the beginning of the company, it's all been x86 based, right, until we branched out to a little bit of ARM computing and now into the Jetson. Alright. And so what other things are you talking about here, the embedded world? Well, we also are selling embedded systems based around PC104 and Jetson. So we have several different enclosure systems. This is called our mini box PC, so you can put ARM and x86 ports inside of here. This is basically the work mounts on top here and then we have cables to the front panel. So it's a pretty standard box PC type of project. This right here is a rugged box called Saber. Here we have a Core i7 single board computer inside of a rugged box, no connectors. This is all IP67 rugged, no standard 810 shock and vibration. This is perfect for vehicle applications, scalable with PC104 expansion. This is the same thing but a smaller size. And then this is a product that we developed also about 20 years ago. This is called Pandora and this system is also a PC104 board that can go inside here and then all the IO comes to the front panel. Alright. In fact, there's an Athena board inside this box right here and these connectors are bringing out the IO from the Athena board as well as some additional IO mounts inside it. So chip makers like Intel and Nvidia are very happy to partner with you to do all kinds of stuff. We're a pretty small customer compared to some of the larger vendors but sure. I mean they're all here because they recognize the value of the embedded market. Actually, Nvidia is just down the street from us so we have a regular relationship with them, we meet them all the time and they help us with connecting us with customers and holding the ecosystem. Creating a new specialized product. Yes, they're very interested of course in becoming a dominant player in the GPU embedded GPU market and so they're working very hard to build the ecosystem of companies like us, camera makers and so on, software vendors who will provide this whole infrastructure ecosystem to help penetrate the market, to create leadership for Nvidia. And right over there, you're showing some other stuff here during the show. Why don't you come out of here? This is a very interesting demo. Okay, so we wanted to show the capabilities of Nvidia Jessen. What we have here is our Stevie carrier board. This is the real Xavier module here. This is the real 30 Terra Ops, 30 Y Xavier module from Nvidia, 512 cores running Linux. And so this is our Stevie carrier which is a very small, compact, low-cost carrier for commercial applications. What we have here is a program for style transfer. Okay, so what happens is you can take a picture of yourself, you can select a piece of artwork and then in just a few seconds it will combine, it will apply this as a style to your picture and give you the output. So here are some examples. Would you like to try? Yeah. Okay, so let's try it. Can I wear my light head? Okay, why don't you stand here, there you are. I take a look at the camera right here, smile. Okay, we'll take a picture. Three, two, one, there you go. Okay, excellent photograph, look at that. So I like it. Now, you get to pick a piece of art. Oh. I would recommend probably, that's a good one. Okay, so now it's processing and there you are. Oh, whoa. Cool. And then we can get your info here so that we can add you to our mailing list and we can print out a picture and give it to you. I'm definitely going to fill this out just after the video. Yeah, and you can do it over and over again because we can try and change styles so you can do another one. So you can try like this one here and it only takes a few seconds. So there you go. All right. See, and the thing is that this would take 100 times as long on an X86 board. And this is just a very busy embedded world, right? This has been a great show for us, yeah. The fact that other people, other companies didn't show up means there was more traffic for us. So we ended up getting a lot of attention. Best embedded world ever for you? I think so, absolutely. All right. And a lot of stuff in the future, right? A lot of things are happening. Innovation is now accelerating, really. I mean, things are really growing so fast, it's hard to keep up. So we're moving in many different directions. We're doing single board computers, ethernet switches, NVIDIA, IO, rugged systems. So there's just so many different directions to move in. It's like a kid in the candy store. There's so much great technology, so many great opportunities here.
