The map defines hardware hosting interfaces; software development and guaranteed carrier-board compatibility remain outside the standard scope.

A complete system drawing is not required. Start with the subsystem, interfaces, operating limits and available documents.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

What this subsystem includes

Define the host-compute platform together with sensor interfaces, network transport, power input, enclosure and operating-environment constraints.

01

Host platform

Jetson Orin or x86 industrial PC context establishes the available compute and interface boundary.

02

Sensor interfaces

Camera, LiDAR and other sensor ports may require documented adapters, cables or network paths.

03

Power & thermal context

Power input, cooling and enclosure constraints affect how the host can be integrated.

04

Software environment records

OS and ROS 2 context helps identify interface and documentation needs without representing software implementation.

STARTING POINT

What to define first

Start with the intended host, operating environment, sensor stack and physical interfaces already selected.

Host and operating environment

Identify the host platform and available OS or ROS 2 environment information.

Sensor and interface stack

List cameras, LiDAR and other devices with GMSL2, FAKRA, Ethernet, CAN or documented interfaces.

Power and enclosure

Provide power-input, thermal, mounting and enclosure constraints.

Documentation boundary

State the pinouts, interface maps, datasheets or controlled files required.

INTERFACE DEPENDENCIES

How sensors and interfaces reach the host environment

A change in sensor, interface adapter, network, host or enclosure can affect port availability, power, thermal conditions, cable routing and documentation.

01 Sensors
02 Interface adapters
03 Network / switch
04 Host compute
05 OS / ROS 2 environment

INTEGRATION DECISIONS

Host-compute decisions that shape the request

These decisions define the hardware hosting boundary without implying software development or guaranteed board compatibility.

01

Host platform and ports

Identify the compute platform and documented ports available to the subsystem.

02

Sensor interface path

Map adapters, cables, switches and device-side interfaces to the host.

03

Power, cooling and enclosure

Coordinate input power, cooling, mounting and service-access constraints.

04

Environment and records

Describe OS or ROS 2 context and the engineering documents required for hardware integration.

PREPARE YOUR REQUIREMENTS

Describe your host compute requirements

Provide the host, sensor, network, power and enclosure context needed to review hardware interfaces.

Describe Your Host Compute Requirements
  • Host-compute platform and project context
  • OS or ROS 2 environment information
  • Camera, LiDAR and sensor stack
  • GMSL2, FAKRA, Ethernet, CAN, EtherCAT or other documented interfaces
  • Power, thermal, mounting and enclosure constraints
  • Pinout, interface-map, datasheet and controlled-file requests

AVAILABLE SUPPORT

What EmbodyStack can support

Support is scoped around documented host and sensor interfaces, power, enclosure constraints and requested records.

  • Host-interface checklist
  • Related sensing or interface-adapter recommendation
  • Power and enclosure input summary
  • Controlled file request status
  • RFQ-ready host-compute summary

BOUNDARIES

What this capability does not cover

  • This capability does not include complete carrier-board design, application software development or AI-model development.
  • Compatibility among third-party hosts, carrier boards, sensors, SDKs, operating systems and ROS 2 environments requires project-specific confirmation.
  • Detailed thermal simulation and final environmental qualification are excluded unless expressly included in a signed statement of work.
  • The customer remains responsible for software, cybersecurity, commissioning, system validation and regulatory requirements.

Product Integration & Compliance

SERVICE SCOPE & RESPONSIBILITIES

Defined inputs, deliverables, boundaries and acceptance.

This published scope is a starting point for quotation. A signed statement of work may add, remove or revise individual items.

Service Overview

NVIDIA Jetson Orin or x86 industrial PC hosting, ROS 2 environment, sensor interfaces, power rails and controlled documentation review.

What this covers

  • Host compute, sensor interface, power input, thermal enclosure and software environment coordination without certification or carrier-board compatibility promises.

Best fit when

  • Use this package when sensor interfaces, power rails, host compute and ROS 2 environment constraints must be reviewed together before RFQ.

Required Customer Inputs

Required input

  • Host compute platform
  • OS / ROS 2 environment
  • Camera / LiDAR / sensor stack
  • GMSL2 / FAKRA / Ethernet / CAN / EtherCAT interfaces
  • Power input
  • Thermal / enclosure constraints
  • Documentation needs

Included Deliverables

Possible review outputs

  • Requirement and interface review record
  • Subsystem interface checklist
  • Wiring or interface document request
  • Related category or integration path recommendation
  • Controlled file request status
  • RFQ-ready integration summary

Delivery boundary

  • Engineering sample or project package support
  • Interface and documentation coordination review
  • Documentation status and controlled file workflow
  • Customer installation, system validation and final safety assessment remain required

Excluded Services

Not included unless expressly stated in a signed statement of work:

  • complete machine design;
  • system-level risk assessment;
  • CE, UKCA, UL or other product certification;
  • functional-safety validation;
  • independent safety approval;
  • professional-engineer certification;
  • regulatory filing;
  • destructive qualification testing;
  • final production qualification;
  • final-user documentation;
  • approval of the customer’s complete system.

Assumptions

  • Conclusions are based on the requirements and records available at the time of review.
  • Published and customer-supplied documents may require engineering confirmation before they are used for a final design decision.
  • Any operating condition, interface, safety or market requirement not provided remains an open item.

Customer Responsibilities

The customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate:

  • operating conditions;
  • loads and duty cycles;
  • dimensional constraints;
  • electrical and control interfaces;
  • environmental conditions;
  • safety requirements;
  • destination market;
  • regulatory and certification requirements.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The agreed deliverable matches the approved inputs and written service scope.
  • Open assumptions, exclusions and deviations are identified in the service record.
  • Acceptance of a service deliverable does not constitute complete system approval, certification or production qualification.

Revision Allowance

  • Revision allowance is defined in the approved quotation or signed statement of work.
  • A revision addresses the agreed deliverable against unchanged inputs; new requirements are handled through Change Control.

Change Control

Changes to an approved requirement, drawing, interface, operating condition or acceptance criterion require a written Change Request.

A Change Request may affect price, schedule, tooling, minimum order quantity, performance, validation and documentation.

ENGINEERING SERVICE SCOPE

EmbodyStack engineering services support product selection, feasibility evaluation, customization, documentation preparation, prototype development and integration review.

Unless expressly included in a signed statement of work, the service does not constitute complete system design, system certification, independent safety validation, production qualification, legal or regulatory advice or approval of the customer’s final machine.

Results depend on the accuracy and completeness of the customer’s stated operating conditions, loads, duty cycle, interfaces, environmental requirements, safety requirements and target-market requirements.

Changes to these inputs may invalidate previous conclusions and require a revised scope, quotation or schedule.
