Overview
The Advantech MIC-712-OX is an ultra-slim, fanless AI inference system built on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX (with Orin Nano options), delivering up to 157 TOPS in NVIDIA Super Mode. Its compact chassis pairs GMSL camera expansion, PoE, and diverse I/O — making it well suited to mobile equipment and safety and security applications. Combined with Avocado OS — atomic OTA updates, secure boot, verified boot, and fleet-wide CVE tracking — and Avocado Connect's centralized fleet management, the MIC-712-OX ships production-grade edge AI without the months of BSP and infrastructure work.

Getting Started
Init, Install, & Build
Follow the Any Supported Target instructions under Getting Started to begin. The MIC-712-OX uses the jetson-orin-nx target with the mic-712-ox-16gb board:
default_target: 'jetson-orin-nx'
default_target_board: 'mic-712-ox-16gb'
Provision
Build the project and execute the provisioning procedure. This will build the system image and flash it to your target hardware.
avocado build
avocado provision -r dev
Run
After provisioning completes, power cycle the device. It will boot with the provisioned system; the root user is passwordless in the dev runtime used by this guide.
