What it is and what for

The main device in the catalog — a compact fanless computer for on-site inference (machine vision, control cabinet, production line): metal heatsink enclosure, eight-core RK3588S with NPU, two USB 3.0 ports for cameras, Gigabit Ethernet, NVMe for storage. Takes 1–2 USB cameras or IP cameras over the network and runs your model on the NPU in a container. No radio: network over cable. Industrial version (−40…+70 °C, CAN, RS-485) — see the options below. Need a board for your own enclosure — PH-K01; need CUDA — PH-J31.

Straight talk: The enclosure and board come from a contract manufacturer (ODM), built to our specification, under the Pikhta part number, with our system image and incoming inspection. Our own design documentation for the enclosure and mounting is produced per customer project.

Prices for 1 / 10 / 100 units and for options are given in the quotation: the “Request a quotation” button above, reply within 2 business days. The price depends on volume, the exchange rate and the DRAM index, so it is fixed in a quotation valid for 30 days.

Platform
SoC	Rockchip RK3588S — 4×Cortex-A76 2.4 GHz + 4×Cortex-A55, 3-core NPU
TOPS INT8 dense	6 TOPS INT8 densemethod: Rockchip datasheet, RKNN 2.3.x; NVIDIA publishes sparse figures — the numbers are not directly comparable, we compare FPS on the same models
Memory	8 GB LPDDR4x (base); 16 GB — option
Storage	64 GB eMMC + M.2 2242 NVMe (256 GB option; with an M.2 accelerator installed, the system stays on eMMC)

Bench measurements
Status	pending (first samples)
What we measure	FPS INT8 YOLOv8n; FPS INT8 YOLOv8s; FPS INT8 YOLO11n; FPS INT8 YOLO11s; FPS INT8 ResNet50; FPS INT8 OCR (PP-OCRv4 rec); 1080p streams; accuracy after quantization

Interfaces
USB	2×USB 3.0 Type-A (UVC cameras), 1×USB-C (service, flashing)
Ethernet / PoE	1×GbE RJ-45

M.2	M.2 M-key 2242, PCIe 2.1 ×1 — NVMe or M.2 NPU accelerator (single slot; card form factor to match the box slot); M.2 2230 E-key for Wi-Fi — depends on the enclosure variant
Video output	HDMI 2.0 — service
Wi-Fi / BT / LTE	none — no radio modules by design: no FSB notification needed, fewer security questions on site; network over cable. A Wi-Fi module is an option, imported with notification.
