3.1.2. Testing Experimental Platform

We used the NVIDIA Jetson TX2 as the development board in order to realize onboard ship detection during the testing part of experiment. The NVIDIA Jetson TX2 is an embedded vision computer system with the 256-core NVIDIA Maxwell GPU model, dual-core Denver2 CPU model, and an 8 G memory size. Meanwhile, the characteristics of low power consumption, high performance, large memory bandwidth, etc. make it very suitable for on-board satellite data processing.
