Company Overview
The company develops AI powered, privacy first physical security screening solutions. Its platforms combine multi sensor data and machine learning to enable people and bag screening with advanced analytics. Ongoing innovation focuses on scalable and compliant security infrastructure.
The Challenges
NVIDIA Jetson Orin Migration
Bulky, traditional GPU systems limited deployment flexibility in compact security screening environments. Moving to an NVIDIA Jetson Orin platform required maintaining real time AI performance while reducing system size and complexity. Compatibility with existing AI workloads remained essential.
Rich I/O in a Compact Footprint
Traditional GPU-based systems made it difficult to support dense I/O in a practical footprint. The platform still needed to accommodate multiple PoE cameras and USB peripherals without the size and complexity of GPU workstations. Achieving high connectivity while reducing overall system bulk was a key requirement.
Rugged Deployment Conditions
Systems are deployed across environments with varying temperatures and physical conditions. Passive cooling was required to avoid maintenance issues. The platform needed to operate reliably without sacrificing performance.
UL Compliance Requirements
Security and surveillance installations across the U.S. require UL certified hardware. Certification was mandatory to meet regulatory and safety standards. Any additional validation would delay deployment timelines.
The Solution
JCO-6000-ORN Series High Performance AI Edge Computer
Premio’s JCO-6000-ORN Series provided the required AI performance using NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB. The platform supports up to 275 TOPS, enabling real-time security screening analytics. This allowed a smooth transition from GPU-based systems.
Modular EDGEBoost I/O Technology
The JCO-6000-ORN Series is designed to support up to two EDGEBoost I/O expansions for connectivity, storage, or out-of-band remote management. For this deployment, the company configured the system with 4x PoE RJ45 and 4x USB 3.0 locking modules to meet current sensor and peripheral requirements. This approach delivered the needed connectivity while preserving flexibility for future expansion.
Modular M.2 Storage and Connectivity
The JCO-6000-ORN Series features dedicated M.2 expansion slots for both high speed storage and wireless connectivity. An onboard M.2 M-Key PCIe x4 slot was populated with a 1 TB NVMe SSD to support responsive AI inference and analytics, while the M.2 E-Key enables integrated Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth without external adapters. This modular design delivers performance today while preserving future expansion flexibility.
Industrial Grade and Certified for Deployment
The fanless JCO-6000-ORN Series is built for industrial environments, supporting reliable operation from -20°C to 55°C with a wide 9–48VDC input range and optional 48–110VDC support for transportation and railway applications. UL 62368 certification ensures the system meets safety requirements for security and surveillance deployments across the U.S.
Benefits
Flexible I/O Without Custom Development
Premio’s modular EDGEBoost I/O technology allowed the system to scale connectivity without requiring OEM or ODM customization. PoE and USB expansion could be configured directly on the JCO-6000-ORN Series to match sensor and peripheral requirements. This reduced development time and cost while preserving long term flexibility.
Deployment-Ready Compliance
Premio’s products are largely UL certified, and in this deployment, UL certification ensured the JCO-6000-ORN Series met regulatory requirements for security and surveillance installations across the U.S. This eliminated delays associated with third party certification or additional validation. As a result, the system was ready for nationwide deployment without additional compliance hurdles.
Local Engineering and Technical Support
With engineering and technical support based in Los Angeles, the team benefited from faster response times during integration and deployment. Local support streamlined troubleshooting and system validation. This helped accelerate implementation while reducing operational risk.
