Vecow ABP-3000 AI-8665U Intel Core i7-8665UE Hailo-8 Ultra-Slim Fanless Edge AI PC

Some vision systems do as much work before and after inference as during it: decoding, resizing, tracking and logging. The ABP-3000 AI-8665U pairs the Hailo-8 accelerator with the faster Intel Core i7-8665UE for that extra load, in the same 33 mm fanless chassis. It is the Core i7 edge AI PC in the Vecow ABP-3000 AI series.

The ABP-3000 AI-8665U uses an onboard Intel Core i7-8665UE, an 8th Gen Whiskey Lake U-series processor, with two DDR4 2400 MHz slots for up to 64 GB, ECC or non-ECC. Beside it, an onboard Hailo-8 AI processor rated at up to 26 TOPS runs TensorFlow and ONNX models, so detection and classification do not compete with the CPU. Intel UHD Graphics 620 drives two DisplayPort outputs at up to 4096 x 2304 at 60 Hz, and Windows 10 and Linux are supported with TPM 2.0.

Networking on the ABP-3000 AI-8665U is four Intel I350 GbE ports, two of them IEEE 802.3at PoE+ at 25.5 W with power on/off control for cameras. Four COM RS-232/422/485 ports with 8 kV ESD protection, 16 isolated DIO and four USB 3.1 ports handle field devices. Storage uses an M.2 Key B socket (PCIe x2 or SATA), while a Mini PCIe socket, an M.2 Key E socket and two internal SIM sockets take 5G, 4G or Wi-Fi modules for connected sites.

The edge AI PC runs on 9 V to 50 V DC through a Mini-DIN connector, with 16-mode ignition control and a remote power switch for vehicle installs. Its cableless, fanless design is rated from 0 °C to 60 °C, with IEC 60068 shock and vibration testing and EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 EMC listings, and the 1.4 kg Vecow unit wall-mounts.
