AAEON NIKY-2215-NX is a 21.5-inch Full HD AI Touch Panel PC powered by the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB/16GB and designed for AI-enhanced HMI applications such as production line inspection systems and industrial monitoring dashboards.
The panel PC features two GbE RJ45 jacks, four USB 3.2 Type-A ports, CAN Bus, RS-232/422/485, and DIO DB-9/15 connectors, and three M.2 sockets for NVMe storage, WiFI/Bluetooth, and 4G LTE/5G cellular connectivity. It can operate in a -5°C to +55°C temperature range, offers vibration and shock tolerance, and takes 12V to 24V DC input.

We’ve covered various industrial panel PCs over the years, and somehow the NIKY-2215-NX appears to be the very first based on an NVIDIA Jetson module to make it to CNX Software. Having said that, other Jetson Orin NX options exist, including Sintrones VPC-101RB2S with a 10.1-inch display and water-resistant ports, and the AAEON NIKY-2155-NX, which was introduced late last year with a 15.6-inch touch panel.
The price for the 21.5-inch NIKY-2215-NX panel PC is not available, but for reference, samples of the 15.6-inch NIKY-2155-NX model can be pre-ordered for $1,439.00 on the company’s eShop with an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB module. Visit the product page for more details about the new 21.5-inch model.
