ARM Cortex-based computer-on-module for embedded computing applications in robots introduced by Congatec
SAN DIEGO – Congatec Inc. in San Diego is introducing the conga-STDA4 SMARC computer-on-module featuring the industrial-grade Arm Cortex-based TDA4VM processor for automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots.
The new product announcement is part of an expansion of Congatec's portfolio in the Arm processor sector to include Texas Instruments (TI) processors.
Using a system-on-chip architecture, TI incorporates accelerated vision and AI processing, real-time control, and functional safety capabilities into their TDA4VM processor.
This Dual Arm Cortex-A72-based module also is vision-focused industrial or medical solution that call for a powerful and energy-efficient artificial intelligence (AI) processor at the edge.
