Computers, mini PCs, and other developer boards come with either x86 or ARM64 chips. Click next to see hardware that has been tried and tested with Seirios.
Processing power is crucial to running Seirios RNS with your robot. With more sensors installed, more computing power will be required to be allocated - and less will be available for Seirios
The following are recommended PC/board specifications to take advantage of every feature available on Seirios RNS
- PC with x86 processor (4 cores with 8 threads @ >3.1GhZ) OR ARM64 (8 cores) [We recommend you to use min i7 gen 8th]
- 8GB DDR4 RAM
- 256GB SSD
- Ubuntu 20.04 & ROS Noetic (x86) OR Ubuntu 18.04 & ROS Melodic (ARM64)
- WiFi connectivity 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
The following pages are specific PCs and developer boards that we have tested with Seirios RNS
x86-64 systems are widely used in most robotics systems and robots with compact-form PCs. It has high computing power and supports multiple hardware sensors connected to it.
Be sure that your robotic system has a large enough battery to accommodate its operations

Seirios RNS is compatible with the following ARM-based systems and kits. ARM-based boards are power efficient but lack computing power (compared to x86-64 / AMD6 systems.
Some computing-intensive features such as 3D LiDAR mapping and navigation or multisensor support (eg 3 different sensors) will not be available on these boards.
