System on Modules (SoM): Power Your AI Vision Solutions

Production-grade compute platforms optimized for AI cameras, edge vision, and embedded analytics.

What is a System on Module?

A System on Module (SoM) is a compact compute module that integrates the CPU, GPU/NPU, memory, and essential I/O into a single unit. This integrated approach allows you to build high-performance embedded vision systems with minimal hardware design effort.

By pairing a SoM with a carrier board or customized hardware, you can rapidly deploy sophisticated vision applications while focusing on your core product differentiators rather than low-level hardware design.
