Astro is specifically designed to work with the NVIDIA Jetson TX1 supercomputer-on-module. The Astro Carrier provides access to features found on the Jetson TX1 module in an extremely small footprint (87mm x 57mm/3.43" x 2.24"). It makes use of a high density, board-to-board connector that allows for use with Connect Tech’s off the shelf or custom designed break out boards.
