Wygląd płyty bazowej komputera H.E.A.D.

The H.E.A.D. computer is an innovative solution featuring a heterogeneous architecture. It is equipped with environmental sensor interfaces integrated with machine learning coprocessors that support the implementation of AI algorithms within control and regulation processes.

The H.E.A.D. computer was developed as an optimized hardware solution for Industry 4.0 applications, including ROS-based robotic systems and industrial cloud solutions.

The hardware features implemented in the H.E.A.D. computer enable seamless hardware-software (HW-SW) resource partitioning tailored to specific computational tasks. This allows for an efficient coupling of ML-coprocessor-enhanced sensor capabilities with software-based AI implementations utilizing neural networks.

Thanks to the onboard reconfigurable FPGA, computations based on wavelet and vector calculus—characteristic of control and regulation algorithms—are significantly accelerated.
