…of their heterogeneous fleets of robots. Our tool, NVIDIA Omniverse, allows the facility owners to optimize warehouse operations before deploying their robots in the real world. Burnstein: There's a lot more automation than ever before—robotics, autonomous forklifts, smart sensors, mobile robots, etc. Kelly Kamlager, senior director of marketing at RIOS Kamlager: This year's trends included the proliferation of AGVs, demand for mixed palletizing and parcel sortation, and more partnerships between large systems integrators and AI-powered robotics startups. We also saw that palletizing is becoming widespread, and an increasing number of customers are seeking solutions for high-mix, low-volume, and rapid change…

…for conversational AI. Developers can save time with NVIDIA Omniverse Replicator for synthetic data generation (SDG), and with the TAO Toolkit for fine-tuning pretrained AI models from the NGC catalog, said NVIDIA. Here are results from running some computer vision benchmarks with Jetson Orin Nano using the latest NVIDIA JetPack 5.1.1. These results show that the developer kit raises the bar for entry-level computer vision. Results from benchmark testing with pretrained models comparing the Jetson Nano to the Jetson Orin Nano 8 GB.
