Abstract
This paper evaluates the performance of the NVIDIA Jetson Orin family of devices for AI and edge computing applications, focusing on a parking lot surveillance example with CVEDIA-RT software. The NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX Developer Kit is used as a means to emulate the Orin NX and Orin Nano devices. A testing procedure based on augmented scripts is presented to assess key performance indicators like RAM, GPU and CPU usage across the Orin NX, and Nano models. By employing the parking lot footage as a real-world test for intruder detection, it was found that all models consistently deliver at least an average of 10 FPS, with higher-end models outperforming the lower-end Orin Nano device. Additionally, the YOLOv4 algorithm is deployed with DeepStream on the Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit, showcasing that the 15 W configuration is suitable for surveillance applications, achieving 13 average FPS.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
