Thundercomm Launches TurboX C7790 Development Kit to Accelerate Edge AI Product Development
Taipei, June 2, 2026 — Thundercomm, a leading provider of AIoT products and solutions, today announced the launch of the TurboX C7790 Development Kit (C7790DK) at Computex 2026. Built on the Qualcomm Dragonwing™ Q-7790 (CQ7790S) processor, the new development platform delivers up to 24 TOPS of AI performance and combines a production-ready TurboX C7790 System-on-Module (SOM), a feature-rich carrier board, Android and Linux operating systems, and support for mainstream AI development frameworks.
Designed as a ready-to-use edge AI development platform, C7790DK helps developers and OEMs accelerate the journey from proof-of-concept (PoC) to commercial deployment. The platform is ideal for a wide range of applications, including intelligent video conferencing systems, AI cameras, industrial robots, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), collaborative robots, delivery robots, and high-performance edge AI gateways.
Enabling the Next Wave of Agentic AI at the Edge
As “AI Without Limits” emerges as a central theme at Computex 2026, AI inference is rapidly moving beyond the cloud and into intelligent edge devices. Real-time responsiveness, energy efficiency, and system reliability have become critical requirements for commercial AI deployments.
The TurboX C7790DK is designed to address these evolving demands. Measuring just 160 × 124 × 20.5 mm, the compact development platform delivers 24 TOPS of AI computing power alongside end-to-end multimedia processing capabilities. Developers can quickly evaluate concepts, prototype applications, and deploy AI workloads at the edge with minimal setup effort. The platform also supports rapid deployment of Thundercomm’s Claw AI solutions, helping customers bring Agentic AI experiences to market faster.
Comprehensive Hardware and Software Platform for Edge AI Innovation
At the heart of the C7790DK is the production-ready TurboX C7790 SOM powered by the Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-7790 processor and equipped with 12GB of LPDDR5X memory.
To support a broad range of edge AI applications, the platform features dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, multiple USB interfaces, dual M.2 expansion slots, as well as integrated gyroscope and electronic compass sensors. Its extensive connectivity options make it suitable for robotics, industrial gateways, outdoor deployments, and other intelligent edge devices.
On the software side, C7790DK comes preloaded with Android and Linux operating systems, mature Board Support Packages (BSPs), and compatibility with leading AI development ecosystems including Qualcomm AI Hub, ONNX, PyTorch, and TensorFlow Lite. Developers can rapidly optimize and deploy AI models at the edge while leveraging Thundercomm’s hardware reference designs to reduce low-level development effort and focus on product differentiation.
Unified Hardware Design for Seamless Platform Expansion
The TurboX C7790 SOM adopts the latest TurboX module form factor design, enabling compatibility with existing hardware assets across the TurboX ecosystem.
With a single carrier board design, customers can quickly migrate between different performance tiers and computing platforms, significantly reducing development costs and accelerating future product upgrades. This unified hardware approach helps protect existing R&D investments while providing a scalable foundation for long-term product roadmaps.
Accelerating Deployment Across Key Edge AI Applications
The TurboX C7790DK is designed to support three high-growth edge AI application categories:
1.Intelligent Video Conferencing Systems
With 24 TOPS AI performance, multiple camera inputs, and an integrated microphone array, the platform supports advanced features such as speaker tracking, intelligent framing, and privacy-preserving on-device AI processing.
2.AI Cameras and Vision Intelligence
Leveraging the Q-7790 processor’s multi-ISP architecture and parallel processing capabilities, the C7790DK can simultaneously process AI workloads from up to three high-resolution cameras. The platform is well suited for AI boxes, intelligent transportation systems, retail analytics, and video management solutions (VMS).
3.High-Performance Edge AI Gateways
Combining 12GB memory, 128GB storage, and 24 TOPS AI computing power, the platform enables local data preprocessing, AI inference, protocol conversion, and secure gateway functions for industries including manufacturing, healthcare, energy, and transportation.
“AI has become the driving force behind the next generation of intelligent edge devices, enabling industries to move beyond connectivity toward true intelligence,” said Dongsheng Cao, CEO of Thundercomm. “With the launch of the TurboX C7790DK, we aim to put powerful AI computing capabilities directly into the hands of developers and enterprise customers worldwide. We believe the C7790DK is more than a development kit—it is the first prototype platform for edge AI innovators and the foundation for scalable commercial deployment.”
