Learn about Deep Learning Accelerators on the Jetson Orin with NVIDIA

Developers or those of you interested in learning more about the Deep Learning Accelerator on NVIDIA's Jetson Orin mini PC will be pleased to know that NVIDIA has published a new article over on its technical blog providing an overview of the Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA) when used with the Jetson system that combines a CPU and GPU into a single module. Providing developers with an expansive NVIDIA software stack in a small, low-power package that can be deployed at the edge. "Though the DLA doesn't have as many supported layers as the GPU, it still supports a wide variety of layers used in many popular neural network architectures. In many instances, the layer support may cover the requirements of your model. For example, the NVIDIA TAO Toolkit includes a wide variety of pre-trained models that are supported by the DLA, ranging from object detection to action recognition. "While it's important to note that the DLA throughput is typically lower than that of the GPU, it is power-efficient and allows you to offload deep learning workloads, freeing the GPU for other tasks.
