e-con Systems Partners with Advantech to Empower a HighPerformance Video AI System in AGV/AMR
Taiwan and Chennai (March 21, 2023) – e-con Systems, a leading OEM camera solution provider,for GMSL (Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link) video solutions, is pleased to announce a partnership withAdvantech, a leading industrial edge AI solution provider. With e-con Systems partnership, Advantech
can provide customers with a GMSL camera + AI Computing System for AGV/AMR applications.
The Future Trend of AGV/AMR
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Automated Mobile Robots (AMRs) are becoming
increasingly popular in manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics industries due to their ability toperform repetitive tasks with high precision and efficiency. One of the major trends in the field ofAGV/AMR is the integration of high-performance machine learning skills and visual processing
abilities. With significant demand for AGV/AMR, vision plays a critical role in enabling these vehicles
to navigate through complex environments, avoid obstacles, and identify items. In such scenarios,
GMSL cameras can be used in harsh environments, such as those with high electromagnetic
interference, temperature variations, or long-distance transmission, without suffering from signal
degradation. This makes them suitable for use in industrial settings, where other types of cameras may
not be able to function reliably.
Advantech AGV/AMR Solution: NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin system with e-con Systems’ GMSL
cameraAdvantech MIC-733-AO is the industrial AI Inference system based on NVIDIA® Jetson AGX
Orin™. MIC-733-AO has high AI performance of up to 275 TOPs, and it features NVIDIA® Jetson
AGX Orin™-based AI with a wide range of I/O interfaces for 5G/4G connectivity and multiple video
inputs, including 2 x GMSL. The GMSL camera from e-con Systems is a high-performance camera
module that uses the GMSL interface to transmit video data over long distances. This solution can
integrate multiple cameras into a single Jetson system, providing comprehensive all-in-one systemefficient technologies.
Together with the MIC-733-AO, GMSL cameras provide a robust and reliable platform for a range ofcomputer vision applications, including object detection, recognition, tracking, and more. The solution
is particularly well-suited for AGV/AMR applications, which can help improve navigation, obstacle
avoidance, and other critical functions. Visual ability is an essential aspect of AGV/AMR technology,
and continued advancements in AI computing and computer vision will be critical to enabling thesevehicles to operate more autonomously and efficiently in the future.
In this partnership, Advantech will leverage its competencies in AI design and manufacturing, while econ Systems will leverage its expertise with GMSL camera technology to deliver innovative highperformance camera solutions. This will help customers integrate cutting-edge camera products with
their applications across a wide range of industries.
