NVIDIA Launches Jetson Orin Nano 2 Robotics AI Computer

NVIDIA announced the Jetson Orin Nano 2 on August 26, 2026, a new robotics computer designed to bring advanced generative AI capabilities to entry-level edge devices. The compact system delivers 78 trillion operations per second of AI compute, doubling the inference performance of its predecessor while consuming 40 percent less power in its 15-watt operating mode. The announcement positions the new hardware to meet growing demand for autonomous systems that can process language, images, and environmental data directly on devices like robots, drones, and vision systems.
