ASUS IoT unveils Tinker Board 3 and Tinker System 3N for industrial applications

ASUS IoT introduces Tinker Board 3 and Tinker System 3N, designed for industrial AI and IoT applications with rugged features and customisation options.

ASUS IoT has introduced two new products aimed at meeting the demanding needs of modern industries. The newly launched Tinker Board 3, a single-board computer (SBC), and Tinker System 3N, a fanless embedded computer, are designed to cater to diverse industrial and IoT applications. With a focus on durability, customisation, and advanced AI capabilities, ASUS IoT’s latest offerings promise to deliver solutions for a range of vertical industries, including smart factories, healthcare, and retail.

Tinker System 3N: Rugged design and customisable I/O, optimised for industrial use

“The fanless Tinker System 3N, equipped with a quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 processor (Rockchip RK3568) and an Arm M-based Mali-G52 GPU, is optimised for industrial use. It meets exacting US MIL‑STD‑810H military-grade standards for shock and vibration resilience, and features a compact 0.79-litre size and an extruded aluminium chassis that ensures reliable operation within a wide temperature range – able to function in conditions ranging from -40 to 60°C.”

Tinker System 3N also supports a wide 12V-24V input range and includes over-voltage, over-current, electrostatic discharge and reverse-current protection to prevent damage. Its expandable and customisable I/O interface allows swift adjustments to adapt to diverse requirements and configurations, making it ideal for smart factory operations, human-machine interface (HMI) applications and outdoor kiosk deployments. Tinker System 3N additionally benefits from a built-in neural-processing unit (NPU) designed for seamless AI integration and applications.

ASUS IoT Tinker Board 3: Advanced AI capabilities with built-in NPU

“Also powered by a 64-bit quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 processor (Rockchip RK3566) and an Arm-based Mali-G52 GPU, ASUS IoT Tinker Board 3 delivers enhanced graphics processing and robust data security. It is designed for seamless integration and features a versatile software suite for quick market deployment, with support for over-the-air (OTA) updates, advanced controls and SDKs to provide a complete solution for smart retail and healthcare applications.”

In common with its stablemate, Tinker Board 3 also features an integrated NPU for AI tasks, empowering capabilities such as object detection, speech recognition and face recognition. This ensures Tinker Board 3 is ideal for diverse industrial needs, such as digital signage, self-service kiosks, medical devices, and more.

Integrated software and hardware solutions

Both Tinker System 3N and Tinker Board 3 integrate advanced software and hardware features to deliver a comprehensive solution, including an SDK with GPIO API integration for simplified development, power scheduling for energy efficiency, USB device power management for durability, and regular OTA updates for optimal performance.
