Cernis and Donati: Revolutionizing AI Computing for Harsh Environments

The introduction of Cernis and Donati solutions marks a significant advancement in AI computing. Designed to tackle the demanding requirements of AI applications in rugged military and defence environments, these solutions offer unmatched performance, scalability and low latency for critical operations. Let’s delve into how these products are transforming the AI landscape.

Cernis: The Heart of Rugged AI Computing

Cernis is powered by NVIDIA Jetson Orin in a small form factor (SFF) system and serves as a key component in expandable edge AI mission computing. Engineers designed Cernis to handle high-end AI applications such as sensor fusion, natural language processing, autonomy, situational awareness, and signal intelligence.

Key Features of Cernis:

  • MIL-STD-810G
  • AI Inference Performance: Up to 40 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second)
  • GPU: 1024-core NVIDIA Ampere architecture with 32 Tensor Cores
  • CPU: 6-core Arm® Cortex®-A78AE v8.2 64-bit
  • System Memory: 8GB 128-bit LPDDR5 with 68 GB/s bandwidth
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
  • Data Fabric Speeds: Over 150GB/s

Donati: The Scalable Powerhouse

The Donati line complements the Cernis by providing scalable AI computing power. Each Donati unit is a mission computer powered by NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX, which ensures exceptional performance within a compact design.

Notable Specifications of Donati:

  • MIL-STD-810G
  • AI Inference Performance: Up to 275 TOPS
  • GPU: 2048-core NVIDIA Ampere architecture with 64 Tensor Cores
  • CPU: 12-core Arm® Cortex®-A78AE v8.2 64-bit
  • System Memory: 64GB 256-bit LPDDR5 with 204.8 GB/s bandwidth
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C

Scalable Solutions for Diverse Applications using Cernis and Donati

Application of Cernis and DonatiThe real power of the Cernis/Donati system is realized when these units are combined. Utilizing a PCIe fabric, this system achieves high performance with minimal latency, making it ideal for data transmission and AI applications in challenging environments.

Use Case: 360-Degree Situational Awareness (360SA)

In 360SA applications, the Donati units can be deployed in a backpack or vehicle-mounted configuration. For instance:

Donati-SC: Acts as a sensor concentrator unit
Donati-MC: Serves as a GPU-accelerated mission computer

A vehicle equipped with a 360SA system can have multiple Donati SC and MC units. These units provide vehicle crews with full situational awareness.

This system can process large amounts of data much faster, significantly reducing latency, and enabling real-time data processing and low-latency video display.

Rugged and Reliable

Both the Cernis and Donati are built to operate seamlessly under extreme conditions, ensuring exceptional reliability and user experience:

  • Temperature: Operating and storage range from -40°C to 85°C
  • Humidity Tolerance: 0% to 100% condensing relative humidity
  • Shock and Vibration Resistance: Engineered to endure rigorous environmental conditions

Compliance and Certification

The Cernis/Donati system is designed to meet stringent industry standards, including:

  • FCC Part 15, Class A
  • Canada ICES-003, Class A
  • CE Mark
  • CISPR 22, Class A
