NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin

NVIDIA

NVIDIA's high-end edge-AI system-on-module (SoM), delivering up to 275 TOPS via a 2048-core Ampere GPU with 64 Tensor Cores and a 12-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU. It ships in 32GB and 64GB LPDDR5 variants on a 699-pin module. Made by NVIDIA, it is the flagship Jetson module for robotics and autonomous machines, able to run large LLMs/VLMs at the edge.

Verified live 2026-06-22 via primary sources. Public datasheets and commercially purchasable, but SDK relies on proprietary NVIDIA blobs under license, placing it in the documented tier.

Adoption

3 medium confidence
3.0

Available as a dev kit and production module through NVIDIA's distributor network with a large Jetson community, but the high price targets professional robotics.

Capability

5 high confidence
5.0

Top-tier edge-AI compute; the 64GB/275 TOPS variant runs large models that exceed smaller Orin modules.
