Architecture & Overview

Built upon NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX/NX compute hardware, the Core-1 node comes custom-flashed with our hardened Linux PREEMPT_RT realtime kernel. It locks control threads to SCHED_FIFO 99 priority, guaranteeing < 1.5μs loop jitter under intense GPU compute loads.

Key Technical Deliverables

  • Pre-flashed PREEMPT_RT low-jitter Linux kernel environment.
  • Embedded stop-on-contact hardware safety clamps.
  • Native MCAP telemetry log streaming over USB 3.2 / EtherCAT.
  • Seamless IPC ring-buffer bridge for Python / C++ policy execution.
