Power Your Edge AI with High-Performance NVIDIA Jetson Carrier Boards
Designed for the forefront of automation and robotics, FORECR delivers industrial-grade carrier boards that combine durability with exceptional processing power. Whether you are deploying deep learning models or complex vision systems, our hardware ensures reliability across extreme temperatures and demanding conditions, giving you the confidence to scale your application from concept to deployment.
Unified NVIDIA Jetson Carrier Board Support
Our portfolio covers every module in the ecosystem. From the compact Jetson Nano and Orin Nano to the powerhouse Jetson Thor and AGX Orin, our carrier boards provide the precise power and thermal management required to unleash maximum AI performance without throttling.
Industrial Carrier Board Durability
Built for where the action is. Each industrial carrier board is designed with high-grade components to withstand extreme temperatures (-25°C to +85°C), shock, and vibration. This ensures your edge AI application runs uninterrupted in factory floors, outdoor kiosks, or autonomous vehicles.
Custom Carrier Board Design Services
Standard layouts don't fit every project. FORECR provides rapid custom carrier board development to match your exact mechanical and electrical requirements. Whether you need specific sensor connectors or a unique form factor, we transform your concept into a production-ready board.
Advanced Camera & Sensor Connectivity
Designed for vision-heavy workloads, our Jetson carrier boards feature native support for MIPI CSI-2 and GMSL camera interfaces alongside industrial I/Os like CAN Bus and RS232/485. This enables low-latency video processing critical for robotics and inspection systems.
Ultra-Compact & Modular Form Factors
Space is often at a premium in edge devices. Our embedded carrier boards offer a minimal footprint without compromising on connectivity. This high-density design allows for easy integration into tight enclosures, drones, and portable medical devices.
Accelerated Board Support & Drivers
Hardware is only half the battle. Every FORECR carrier board comes with comprehensive Board Support Packages (BSP) and pre-verified drivers. We streamline the software bring-up process, letting your team focus on AI application development rather than hardware debugging.

Frequently Asked Questions
A carrier board acts as the physical backbone for NVIDIA Jetson modules, transforming the raw computing "brain" (SoM) into a fully functional system by providing essential interfaces like USB, Ethernet, and camera connectors. It manages power distribution and signal routing, enabling the module to communicate seamlessly with external sensors and industrial equipment. For detailed information, you can read our blog post titled "What Are Carrier Boards?".
Our ecosystem is designed for complete scalability, supporting the full range of NVIDIA Jetson form factors from the entry-level Jetson Nano and Orin Nano to the high-performance Xavier NX, Orin NX, and AGX Orin series. We also provide forward-compatible solutions for the latest Jetson Thor platform, ensuring your hardware infrastructure allows for seamless performance upgrades without redesigning your entire system.
FORECR’s Jetson carrier boards are specifically engineered for industrial and edge environments. Unlike standard COTS options, FORECR designs feature:
- Extended operating temperature ranges (up to -25°C to +85°C)
- Extended connectivity options
- Wide input voltage ranges
- Industrial-grade connectors and materials
- Long lifecycle support
These features make them highly reliable for field deployments where standard Jetson boards or COTS solutions would not survive.
FORECR’s carrier boards are optimized to fully utilize the computational power of modules like Orin AGX, Orin NX, and Orin Nano for real-time AI tasks. Key enablers include:
- Multiple high-speed CSI-2 camera interfaces for vision-based AI
- Dedicated connectors for industrial I/O (CAN, RS-232/485, GPIO)
- Delivers up to 275 TOPS
- Support for real-time protocols, low-latency processing, and sensor fusion
- Compatibility with robotics frameworks and middleware like ROS and NVIDIA Isaac
These Jetson carrier boards are ideal for edge AI deployments in autonomous robotics, predictive maintenance, visual inspection, and smart process automation.
Yes. FORECR offers both standard models and customizable solutions. Customers can request custom I/O configurations (e.g., specific combinations of USB, Ethernet, serial, GPIO, or camera interfaces), Specify mechanical modifications (e.g., connector layout), Add or remove features like CAN bus, PoE, or display output.
FORECR ensures reliability through a multi-layered approach:
- Strict component selection with industrial temperature-grade parts
- In-house mechanical and thermal validation
- Optional conformal coating, underfill, and extended temperature support
- Quality inspection and testing for each product before shipment
All Jetson carrier boards undergo rigorous quality control to ensure they meet the demands of long-term, harsh-environment deployments.
Yes. For applications requiring maximum resilience beyond standard industrial-grade solutions, FORECR offers the MILBOARD and RAIBOARD Jetson carrier boards—engineered for military, defense, and railway environments. These ruggedized platforms go beyond industrial specifications with:
