S-A1760 Venus: Radiation-characterized GPGPU for AI in Space

Designed for short duration spaceflight, NEO and LEO satellites applications, the S-A1760 VenusTM is the smallest, most powerful space-rated Rugged-GPGPU small form factor (SFF) system, ideally suited for video and signal processing in distributed systems.

The S-A1760 is based on Aitech’s popular A176 and uses the same NVIDIA® JetsonTM TX2i SoM with 256 CUDA cores, reaching 1 TFLOPS at a remarkable level of energy efficiency. It is qualified to Aitech’s Series 300 level of radiation characterization, which enables cost-effective COTS components to be reliably in lower orbit space applications.
