Rhino Pi A1R
Product Overview
The Rhino Pi A1R is powered by the Rhino Core Q64 smart module and is compatible with the Rhino Core Q85 smart module. The mainboard provides a rich set of data communication interfaces, supporting dual Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet, USB 3.0 Type-A and expansion USB 2.0 connectors, as well as display interfaces such as MIPI DSI/CSI, HDMI, and eDP. It also supports multiple general-purpose bus interfaces including SPI, I2C, RS485, UART, I2S, CAN, and GPIO. An onboard WiFi 6 + BT 5.3 module, a standard Mini-PCIe interface for 4G communication expansion, an external Micro SD card slot for storage expansion, and audio input/output interfaces are also provided. The board is designed for high-compute and high-stability scenarios such as robotics, industrial AI, and high-end IPC/VR applications.
This mainboard is developed with strictly selected materials and careful design. Its compact size and rich interfaces make it easy to integrate into complete products. Paired with different core boards, it can meet the performance requirements of various product configurations, and can be applied in industries such as digital signage, touch interaction, consumer electronics, and entertainment systems.
Operating System
Ubuntu 24.04 (native Linux version) is provided by default, targeting edge AI, robotics, and embedded development.
