Enable Real-Time AI for High-Speed Data Acquisition with DAQIRI | NVIDIA Technical Blog

What this post added

Introduces NVIDIA DAQIRI (Data Acquisition for Integrated Real-time Instruments), a high-performance networking library within the NVIDIA Holoscan Platform. DAQIRI enables direct, zero-copy streaming of high-bandwidth detector data to GPU memory, bypassing the Linux kernel via DPDK and GPUDirect. It facilitates real-time AI processing, filtering, compression, and adaptive control for scientific instruments and industrial applications. The post details its architecture, key features (high throughput, low latency, zero memory copy to GPU, YAML-driven configuration, C++/Python APIs), and provides a walkthrough of its configuration. It highlights its application in the A-GHOST project at CERN for real-time analysis of HL-LHC data.
