NVIDIA Jetson Thor – 2,000+ Teraflops Powering the Future of Robots & AI
NVIDIA has officially launched the Jetson AGX Thor, a new powerhouse computer for robotics and physical AI. Built on the Blackwell GPU architecture, it delivers up to 2,070 FP4 teraflops of AI compute with 128GB of memory, all within a 130-watt power envelope. That’s a 7.5-times increase in AI performance and 3.5-times greater energy efficiency compared to its predecessor, Jetson Orin.
This leap in performance allows robots to run multiple generative AI models simultaneously at the edge, unlocking real-time perception, reasoning, and interaction—no cloud delays, just instant decision-making.
Several leading robotics companies are already adopting Thor. Agility Robotics is integrating it into Digit, enabling faster reactions and more advanced scene understanding for tasks like stocking shelves and handling logistics. Boston Dynamics is bringing it into Atlas for advanced behaviour models, and companies such as Amazon Robotics, Caterpillar, Figure, Meta, and Medtronic are also on board. Even John Deere and OpenAI are evaluating its potential.
Priced from $3,499 for the developer kit, Jetson Thor is positioned as the onboard computer that could accelerate the future of robotics—making machines smarter, faster, and safer to work alongside.
