Cloud-based computer vision fails in mission-critical environments where bandwidth is constrained, latency cannot exceed 50 milliseconds, and network dropouts represent severe safety hazards.
At Nexariza AI, our Hardware & Edge Lab designs, flashes, and deploys turn-key Edge AI gateways and biometric turnstiles powered by the NVIDIA Jetson Orin family and NVIDIA TensorRT. Explore our Document & Computer Vision Services.
1. Silicon Selection: Orin Nano vs Orin AGX
Spec · NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano (8GB) · NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin (64GB)
Compute · Up to 40 TOPS · Up to 275 TOPS
Power Envelope · 7W – 15W · 15W – 60W
Primary Use · Biometric Turnstiles, Single-Line QC · Multi-Camera Warehouse Perception
Cooling · Fanless CNC Aluminum Housing · Active / Industrial Blower
2. TensorRT Optimization Pipeline
Deploying PyTorch models directly on edge hardware results in unacceptable memory footprints and thermal throttling. We apply a rigorous three-stage compilation pipeline:
- ONNX Graph Pruning: Eliminate dead nodes and fold batch normalization layers into preceding convolutional weights.
- TensorRT Engine Compilation: Select optimal kernel algorithms based on the target GPU architecture (Ampere).
- FP16 & INT8 Quantization: Calibrate activation ranges with representative factory imagery to preserve accuracy within 0.3% mAP while cutting latency in half.

3. Real-World Applications: Biometric Access & Defect Detection
- Sub-120ms Biometric Turnstiles: Dual Sony IMX477 sensors run infrared and RGB liveness detection to block printed photos and screen spoofing before triggering the dry-contact relay. Inspect our Dubai Industrial Biometric Turnstile Case Study.
- High-Speed Industrial Inspection: Conveyor belt scanning at 240 frames per minute, flagging micro-cracks in manufacturing components with immediate PLC reject signal triggers. See our Transit Traffic Violation Vision System.
All hardware units are procured through our direct factory supply chains, flashed with hardened custom Linux microkernels in our Lahore lab, and shipped worldwide with insured air freight.
