Carrier board supports 9–60V direct battery input with dual-battery hot-swap, 4x GMSL2 camera inputs for long-cable EO/IR/depth sensors, PoE+ on both Ethernet ports for LiDAR, and 3x CAN-FD for motor controllers.Boots into a validated ROS 2 / Isaac ROS / Nav2 image, so perception and navigation stacks run out of the box. Full BOM traceability and NDAA §889 compliance make it eligible for US defense and security UGV programs. Supported through 2032 on NVIDIA's product longevity roadmap.
