Computer server redundancy, including backup power supplies, RAID storage devices and applications that automatically fail-over, keeps critical systems up and running longer than non-redundant systems. Similarly, effective system monitoring can provide early warning of failures and allow system managers to remotely manage these systems, further improving application uptime. While the concepts of computer system redundancy and system management are well-established in all levels of computing, from the personal computer to the largest hyperscale datacenters, the unique challenges of placing datacenter-class computing elements performing AI applications in mobile edge environments, like aircraft, ships, and land vehicles, brings unique challenges to system redundancy and management.

One Stop Systems’ strategic focus is on artificial intelligence (AI) Transportables, a term self-defined by OSS to mean anything that moves or is transportable that requires the latest in technology, at the edge, operating in a harsh environment. Basically, the capabilities of the highest performance data center in the field. Though this definition incorporates a myriad of applications, one industry of focus is the use of such capabilities in autonomous or self-driving, long-haul trucks.
The words “Artificial Intelligence” may conjure up many images of science fiction books and movies. There may be many assumptions and misconceptions of how artificial intelligence is used, but artificial intelligence (AI) is predominantly used in the business world for both commercial and government applications.
The OpenVPX standards occupy a special place in deployed military compute platforms. Designed as a successor to VME64, the OpenVPX (ANSI 65) and related standards such as SOSA have offered the opportunity to package COTS systems that meet the challenging environmental and electrical requirements of military vehicles across all services. AI Transportable systems incorporate GPUs and switched fabrics that were not envisioned by the existing standard and threaten to force significant new investment in product development before deployment of next generation systems such as C4ISR.
In this video, Michael Bradley does a tour of the OSS booth at AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2022 in Orlando, FL from April 26-28. Michael discusses the products we showcased at XPONENTIAL and how they provide solutions for Edge AI for Autonomous Vehicles. OSS AI Transportable products can provide solutions for GPU acceleration, FPGA data ingest, and NVMe storage.
Let’s start with a little background for anyone that doesn’t know what AS-9100 means or why you would have it at all. AS-9100 is a quality management system, developed to address the holes that aerospace companies found in the ISO-9001 standard in the way they needed to do business for their customers. It was initially ratified in 1999, and has since gone through 4 revisions to our current version today, which is AS-9100D.
In this video, Tom Fries performs a tour of the One Stop Systems (OSS) booth at Sea Air Space (SAS) 2022 in National Harbor, MD, which took place April 4-6. Tom discusses the products we showcased at SAS, and how they provide solutions for Edge AI for the Military Theater. OSS' AI Transportable products can provide solutions for GPU acceleration, FPGA data ingest, and NVMe storage.
5G networks are the key for a worldwide digital transformation, impacting AI and edge computing as well as smart cities, while also providing high-speed data transfer in real-time for enterprises across every vertical market segment. New applications are constantly emerging on the market, taking advantage of the cellular networks’ super-low latency and much higher bandwidth.
With the well-documented shortage of semi-truck drivers currently in the United States, where do we stand in terms of developing and deploying autonomous trucks? Will autonomous long-haul trucks take jobs away from drivers? Are fully autonomous trucks safe for the roads? What does the future look like for autonomous trucks? These are all great questions. This blog will discuss all that and more, so let’s jump in and discuss it.
In this video, Jim Ison will do a quick walkthrough of the OSS 4U Pro Gen4 PCIe Expansion System. The 4U Pro is a rugged AI Transportable system that provides optimized, configurable PCIe Gen4 expansion for edge AI applications with up to 256 Gigabytes per second (GB/s) bi-directional host to expansion bandwidth and 768 GB/s aggregate system bandwidth.
