Tutorial - Jetson Platform Services

Jetson Plaform Services (JPS) provide a platform to simplify development, deployment and management of Edge AI applications on NVIDIA Jetson. JPS is a modular & extensible architecture for developers to distill large complex applications into smaller modular microservice with APIs to integrate into other apps & services. At its core are a collection of AI services leveraging generative AI, deep learning, and analytics, which provide state of the art capabilities including video analytics, video understanding and summarization, text based prompting, zero shot detection and spatio temporal analysis of object movement.
