Elevating Edge AI Performance for Smarter, Safer Construction Vehicles

Nexcom's new ATC 3563 edge AI computer delivers powerful, real-time AI processing and unmatched connectivity, transforming how construction sites operate. www.nexcom.com In modern construction, vehicles are evolving into intelligent data hubs capable of operating with increasing autonomy. Edge AI computers now function like the central nervous systems of cranes, excavators, and heavy-duty trucks — analyzing visual data, monitoring equipment, and making split-second decisions to maximize efficiency and safety. Designed specifically for these mission-critical requirements, the new ATC 3563 edge AI computer delivers powerful real-time processing, rugged reliability, and unmatched connectivity to transform how construction sites operate. Rugged edge computing built for heavy-duty tasks Construction sites are harsh environments, where heat, vibration, and dust are constant challenges. The ATC 3563 is engineered to operate reliably under these demanding conditions. Its fanless, compact enclosure meets MIL-STD-810H standards for shock and vibration and supports extreme operating temperatures from –25°C to 60°C. Inside the ATC 3563-NX8C/NXA8CR, the NVIDIA Jetson Orin™ NX platform in Super Mode delivers up to 157 TOPS of AI inference performance for instant visual analytics and on-site decision-making. The ATC 3563-NA8C-8/NAA8CR-8 variant, powered by Jetson Orin Nano™ in Super Mode, provides up to 67 TOPS, offering an efficient, low-power option. This combination of durability and intelligence enables cranes and mobile machinery to run automated safety checks, detect personnel and obstacles, and process camera feeds in real time — even in the toughest construction zones. Advanced multi-camera “network vision” Modern construction operations rely heavily on video-based monitoring. The ATC 3563 simplifies deployment with eight GbE PoE+ ports (RJ45 or M12 X-coded), enabling direct camera power and data transmission without external adapters. These synchronized ports support up to eight high-definition video streams, creating a full 360-degree surround view for cranes and heavy machinery. This comprehensive visual coverage eliminates blind spots, enhances operator awareness, improves precision lifting, and reduces collision risks with nearby structures, vehicles, or workers. Combined with PCIe 4.0 ×4 NVMe SSD storage, USB 3.2, and native CAN bus support, the system enables real-time analytics such as object detection, load monitoring, and predictive alerts. Seamless integration for mobile equipment With a wide DC input range (9–36 V), ignition control, and built-in OCP/OVP protection, the ATC 3563 integrates effortlessly into diverse vehicle power systems. Optional 5G NR, LTE, and Wi-Fi 5/6 modules ensure always-on connectivity for remote diagnostics, fleet monitoring, and over-the-air AI model updates — including on moving platforms or remote jobsites. Built for uptime, precision, and operational safety, the ATC 3563 is an ideal platform for crane automation, fleet safety solutions, and intelligent jobsite management. www.nexcom.com Powered by Induportals Media Publishing
