What kind of projects students can do using Jetcore. is it only limited to drones?

Just wanted to know how students can use Jetcore in their college projects or robotic competition.

Great question! JetCore is actually an awesome tool for college projects and robotics competitions, especially if you’re working on anything that needs real-time AI processing, computer vision, or autonomous behavior.

Here’s how students can make the most of it:

1. Computer Vision Projects
Use JetCore with Jetson Orin Nano/NX to run YOLO, DeepSort, or any vision models for tasks like object detection, line following, gesture control, etc. Perfect for autonomous bots or surveillance drones.

2. SLAM & Navigation
Pair it with LiDAR, stereo cameras, or depth sensors for SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) — useful in maze-solving robots, delivery bots, or warehouse automation prototypes.

3. Edge AI + ML
Run AI models locally without needing cloud. Whether it’s pose estimation, activity recognition, or predictive maintenance – JetCore lets you do it at the edge with low latency.

4. ROS Integration
JetCore plays really well with ROS/ROS2, which is a big win for robotics teams. You can run full ROS stacks, sensor fusion, real-time control loops — all on board.

5. Drone or Autonomous Vehicle Control
If you’re building drones or ground vehicles, JetCore gives you enough power to handle real-time image processing and control algorithms on the move.

6. Multimodal Systems
Combine audio, visual, sensor data — JetCore can process multiple streams simultaneously. Great for projects like smart assistants, home automation, or human-robot interaction.


:light_bulb: Bonus: It’s compact, rugged, and power-efficient — perfect for mounting directly on robots or drones during competitions.

If you’re a student team working on a competition project and need help getting started with JetCore, feel free to ask.
