AAEON BOXER-8120AI: AI Monitoring for Fever and PPE Compliance

With four Ethernet ports, two USB 3.0 and two COM ports, the BOXER-8120AI provides flexible I/O to integrate with most projects.

AAEON’s BOXER-8120AI is being deployed by developers to assist in monitoring hospital entrances. The BOXER-8120AI is a Fanless Embedded Box PC powered by the NVIDIA Jetson TX2 SOC with 256 CUDA cores. It supports AI frameworks such as TensorFlow, Caffe2, and can support custom AI inference software. With four Ethernet ports, two USB 3.0, and two COM ports, the BOXER-8120AI provides flexible I/O to integrate with most projects.

The BOXER-8120AI is also used to detect potential patients. The facial recognition models can identify people and features, even with personal protective equipment (PPE), allowing hospital staff to locate and address anyone with an abnormally high body temperature. Operating at the edge, the system is able to identify and measure the temperature of up to 240 people per minute, according to the company.
