Embedded computing maker Vantron introduced the VT-SBC-SMARC-IMX952 system-on-module during electronica 2026 on November 13, 2026. The module measures 82 by 50 millimetres in the SMARC 2.1 form factor and is built around NXP's i.MX 952 processor, targeting industrial human-machine interfaces, edge AI vision, factory automation and in-cabin sensing. The processor pairs two or four Arm Cortex-A55 cores at up to 1.7 gigahertz with an 800 megahertz Cortex-M7 real-time core and a 333 megahertz Cortex-M33 safety core. Graphics come from a Mali-G310 GPU, video encoding supports H.264 at up to 4K and 30 frames per second, decoding supports H.265 and H.264 at up to 4K and 60 frames per second, and the image signal processor handles 500 megapixels per second with RGB-IR multi-camera support. AI acceleration is provided by NXP's eIQ Neutron NPU at up to 2 TOPS in INT8. The module carries 8GB of LPDDR4x memory and 64GB of eMMC 5.1 storage, with all interfaces exposed through a standard 314-pin MXM 3.0 connector. Connectivity includes one Gigabit Ethernet port and one 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, both with Time-Sensitive Networking support, an optional Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0 module, PCIe 3.0 x1, two CAN FD buses and eight 12-bit analogue-to-digital channels. Power is 5 volts at 2.4 amps, with consumption up to 10 watts at full load, and the operating range is 0 to 70 degrees Celsius, with an optional minus 40 to 85 degrees version. The module is offered in Android and Yocto Linux ordering variants, both with 8GB of memory and 64GB of storage, with an optional BlueSphere mobile device management platform for Android devices. The launch report gave no pricing or availability.
