The Asus Tinker Edge R is a single-board computer (SBC) specifically designed for AI applications. It features Rockchip NPU, a machine learning (ML) accelerator that speeds up processing efficiency, reduces power consumption and makes it easier to build connected devices and intelligent applications. With this built-in machine learning accelerator, the Tinker Edge R can perform three blade operations per second (TOPS) using minimal power. It is also optimized for neural network (NN) architecture, which means that Tinker Edge R can support multiple machine learning frameworks and provides the ability to compile many common machine learning models.
The Tinker Edge R features a special power structure that, together with a DC power supply, delivers up to 65 watts of power, enabling stable system operation and full I/O performance even with multiple connected devices.
A powerful and modern, six-core ARM-based Rockchip RK3399 Pro A72+A53 processor powers the Tinker Edge R. It also features 4GB of LPDDR4 memory and 16GB of eMMC storage. Storage can be expanded with a fast micro SD card slot.
