NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit exceeded every expectation. For its size, this thing delivers incredible performance — fast boot times, smooth CUDA acceleration, and outstanding handling of AI workloads. Running local LLMs, vision models, robotics stacks, and edge-compute pipelines feels effortless. The build quality is solid, setup is straightforward, and the system stays stable even under heavy loads. I’ve tested everything from PyTorch models to engineering diagnostics and it never struggles. For anyone working on edge AI, embedded systems, or real-time machine learning, this is an absolute powerhouse. Highly recommended if you want serious AI performance in a compact, efficient developer kit. This is hands-down one of the best edge-AI boards available right now.

Slight pain on getting newer jetpack installed for non-Linux person, but i got it. I had Ollama Phi3 up and running very quickly I'm impressed and looking forward to playing with it more.

The Orin Nano super developer kit is a very solidly manufactured little device that is very reliable. Once you learn how to use it with a small Ubuntu 22.04 host and Nvidia’s sdkmanager, you can use it to host many different applications with or without AI. The CSI-2 camera ports are very tricky to use if the cameras are not UVC compatible. At this time, it only supports ubuntu 22.04, but that is enough for many useful applications. Beware and know which version of JetPack you need to use, and be prepared to flash and reflash your SD or NVME memory. It is best to use a large size NVME to avoid lots of headache dealing with the SD.

what a waste of time, not worth my sanity. another day and I'd likely take a sledge hammer to it. nvidia software, their os, the sdk, the code examples (jetson lab), all of it is just absolute garbage. first, you must have real computer (vm won't do) with intel and ubuntu 22.04 just to flash the nvme. then you find out nothing works. first clue was their "readme" link they placed on the desktop "for my convience", which doesn't work, points to nothing. snap needs downgrading before you can run any program. then there are the ai software examples from their own lab. I wasted a week so far trying. only ollama native or container work. I can't make anything else work, and these are their own "tutorials" for this board. all I learned from those is to stay far away from nvidia. I don't believe any of that software, the os and the tutorials are tested or that they are maintaned. their support forums have nothing useful. none of the speech or image or vision tutorials work, all I get is errors, or no response. docker containers start, but nothing listens on the ports I'm supposed to browse to. a swap file is necessary to run anything because the os and nvidia crapware already use about 2-3 GB, leaving very little for models. performance is disapointing, the advertised 67 tops is a lie, marketing bs. in the "super" mode it throttles down immediatelly, actually it trottles down in all power modes. the fan does nothing because it defaults to quiet mode, and you must find a way to set it to allow it to do its job of actually cooling the chip. every step is a struggle, hours of trying, hundreds of gigabytes of wasted downloads. I bought this nvidia dev kit because of the hardware specs:, 1024 cudas, 32 tensors, 2 pcie slots, gpio, 2 csi cameras. but it's all useless without working software and drivers and documentation, and nvidia people have no clue how to code. I know nvidia since mid 90s, their video card drivers were always horrible.

Quiet an impressive little edge computing device to start experimenting with AI. Not easy to setup though if you are not technical. However mine came with a power supply dead on arrival out of the box.

This device is pretty sweet and for the price it was at was well worth it. It is a speedy little device and I am still learning things it can do. So far Emulation station it does phenomenal with, I am working on some AI generation and LLM stuff. Also testing this out with a digital camera for taking cleaner pictures and using profiles others have setup to get better night shots. There are a lot more things to do with this and it is a very versatile deal.

This is an amazing addition to my Home Assistant setup. I now have an AI server that keeps all of my data safe and secure inside my own network, no more data mining by tech bros. Best of all it's crazy low wattage. I am going to be getting another one for a robotic project to be its interactive AI. I realize that I can just have the robot use this one on my network but I want the robot to be 100% self contained. With the low power consumption, there's no reason to not have it on board. I will probably also use it as one of the robotic controllers but only if it can walk and chew gum (talk) at the same time. These things are well worth the price as long as tariffs don't jack up the price. I hope I don't have to wait a few more years for that nonsense to quit making robotics so friggin' expensive. You're killing me smalls.

nicht schlecht

Terrible!

Functioning very well! Fast and stable. Especially, I found that the wifi is more stable and fast compared to jetson nano

Excelente!

Yes
