·2026.11.13 19:05

Key point

Optimization reduces planning time from 0.6–0.8 s to 45 ms, enabling 20 Hz camera processing on a single board.

Details

  • NVIDIA Alpamayo 2 Edge is a vision-language-action model that processes inputs from 6 cameras and recent motion to plan paths and explain actions.
  • The model is trained in a reinforcement learning loop and released in PyTorch format.
  • Default performance on Jetson AGX Thor is approximately 0.6–0.8 s per plan, limiting updates to about once per second for a 20 Hz camera.
  • Optimized implementation achieves 45 ms per plan, supporting 20 decisions per second on the same hardware to match camera rates.
