HOLOSCAN SDK / SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
From the machine
to the data center
Build with Holoscan across embedded computers, desktop systems, and GPU servers. Choose the hardware for your workload, with one SDK for perception and control.
01 / EMBEDDED & INDUSTRIAL
Compute inside the machine
COMPACT EDGE
Jetson Orin Nano
Start small. Develop camera, sensor-processing, and AI pipelines on a compact Jetson platform for embedded Physical AI.
EMBEDDED AI
Jetson AGX Orin
Bring sensor fusion, GPU-accelerated perception, and control into robots and instruments built around Jetson AGX Orin.
BLACKWELL AT THE EDGE
IGX / Jetson Thor T5000
Build on Thor with Blackwell GPU acceleration and Arm CPU compute. Choose Jetson for embedded systems or IGX for industrial deployments.
INDUSTRIAL COMPUTE
IGX Thor T7000
Build demanding instruments and industrial systems on an IGX board platform, with options for discrete GPU acceleration and enterprise support.
02 / DESKTOP & DATA CENTER
Room for bigger workloads
DESKTOP AI
DGX Spark
Develop Holoscan applications on your desk. DGX Spark brings Grace Blackwell compute to a compact Arm-based system for prototyping and integration.
DATA CENTER
DGX
Run GPU-intensive processing on x86-based DGX systems. Bring larger reconstruction, inference, and scientific workloads into the same application model.
WORKSTATIONS & SERVERS
x86
Use an x86 workstation or server with an NVIDIA discrete GPU. Integrate Holoscan into the compute and I/O configuration your application needs.
03 / CHOOSE YOUR FOUNDATION
Match the platform
to the application
Use each platform’s setup guide for the supported OS, drivers, and SDK installation path.
