¶Introduction

NVIDIA JetPack SDK powering the Jetson modules is the most comprehensive solution for building end-to-end accelerated AI applications, significantly reducing time to market.

NVIDIA JetPack includes 3 components:

  1. Jetson Linux: A Board Support Package (BSP) with bootloader, Linux kernel, Ubuntu desktop environment, NVIDIA drivers, toolchain and more. It also includes security and Over-The-Air (OTA) features.

  2. Jetson AI Stack: CUDA Accelerated AI stack which includes a complete set of libraries for acceleration of GPU computing, multimedia, graphics, and computer vision. It supports application frameworks such as Metropolis to build, deploy and scale Vision AI application, Isaac for building high performance robotic applications and Holoscan for building high performance computing applications (HPC) with real time insights and sensor processing capabilities from edge to cloud.

3.Jetson Platform Services: A collection of ready to use services to accelerate AI application development on Jetson.
