At OpenZeka, we deliver end-to-end artificial intelligence solutions with a strong focus on NVIDIA technologies. As an ISV solution provider, we developed Cordatus AI, our Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) and AI inference platform. Cordatus AI transforms raw camera streams into actionable insights in real time, seamlessly connecting sensors such as cameras with powerful computing resources.
What sets Cordatus apart is its ability to deploy both computer vision and generative AI models—not only in the cloud but also directly on edge devices. This flexibility is becoming critical as industries demand faster, smarter, and more autonomous systems. That’s why we at OpenZeka are especially excited about the arrival of NVIDIA Jetson Thor.

Why Physical AI Matters
Artificial intelligence has reshaped modern operations. With the rise of generative AI, AI agents, large language models (LLMs), and vision-language models (VLM), the demand for these capabilities at the edge has exploded.
Physical AI addresses this demand by:
- Processing data locally, minimizing latency for real-time responsiveness.
- Ensuring operations continue even without internet connectivity.
- Preserving privacy by keeping sensitive data on-device.
- Reducing network load and cutting operating costs.
At OpenZeka, we see these needs daily in manufacturing, healthcare, security, retail, and smart city deployments. Customers want cloud-class AI at the edge, and Jetson Thor™ is the breakthrough that makes this a reality.
Jetson Thor: Empowering Cordatus AI
NVIDIA Jetson Thor represents a great leap in edge computing power, purpose-built for demanding workloads like generative AI and multi-sensor fusion. Compared to AGX Orin, it delivers:
- 7.5 x higher AI performance
- 3.5 x better energy efficiency
- From ~275 TOPS to an unprecedented 2,070 TFLOPS (FP4)
For Cordatus AI, this performance means the ability to:
- Run large vision-language and generative AI models directly on-device.
- Ingest and process more video feeds in parallel.
- Deliver faster, more accurate analytics while maintaining power efficiency.
A New Class of Robotic & Video AI
Jetson Thor isn’t just about raw performance—it brings to the edge what was once only possible in the cloud. With Cordatus AI, advanced LLMs and VLMs (such as Llama or Gemini) can now run without internet connectivity, enabling real-time reasoning models and intelligent AI agents. Together with NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N1.5, Thor also powers multi-modal robotics—drones, robots, and autonomous platforms that adapt in real time. Extending this intelligence further, Cordatus delivers video analytics workflows and AI agents, powered by NVIDIA blueprints such as Video Search and Summarization (VSS), fully at the edge.
Video has become one of the most valuable yet overwhelming data sources across security, retail, manufacturing, and healthcare. Hours of footage often contain only seconds of relevance—but with VSS powered by NVIDIA Jetson Thor, Cordatus AI can instantly search across live or recorded streams, summarize video with contextual insights, provide interactive Q&A about footage, and trigger real-time alerts for critical events. What once required cloud-scale infrastructure can now run securely at the edge, enabling privacy-preserving, real-time video analytics for the most demanding environments.
