At The Future of Memory and Storage Conference 2024, Frore Systems received the Best of Show - Most Innovative Technology Award for AirJet® Mini Sport, the world’s first waterproof solid-state active cooling chip.
Santa Clara, CA , August 6, 2024 – Frore Systems is proud to announce that the AirJet Mini Sport has been awarded the prestigious ‘Best of Show - Most Innovative Technology Award’ at FMS: the Future of Memory and Storage Summit - the industry’s largest annual event held in Silicon Valley, CA. The new waterproof AirJet Mini Sport enables significant performance boosts in a wide range of IP68 devices like smartphones and action cameras, achieving performance increases of up to 80% while remaining waterproof and dustproof - without having to compromise on the small form factor users love. At FMS2024, the company is demonstrating the award winning AirJet Mini Sport integrated into an 8TB M2 Thunderbolt SSD accessory achieving a 3x increase in sustained performance, while protecting the SSD from water and dust.
“We are honored to receive the 'Most Innovative Technology - Best of Show Award’ at FMS for the waterproof AirJet® Mini Sport.” said Dr. Seshu Madhavapeddy, founder and CEO of Frore Systems. “This coveted award further illustrates the incredibly wide range of applications for AirJet. Whether in action cameras, smartphones, tablet, notebooks, mini-PCs, AR/VR headsets, Wifi access points, or SSD devices, consumers are demanding increased performance and AI capabilities in compact devices they can use on land or in water. AirJet Mini Sport unleashes waterproof IP68 device performance everywhere, enabling users to do more.”
The demand for increased performance has surged dramatically, driven by advancements in Edge AI and On-Device AI applications. While the latest processors and SSDs can deliver mind blowing performance, within seconds they are forced to throttle, or slow down, to prevent overheating which can cause severe damage. Traditional active cooling - using fans which are bulky, noisy and pull dust into devices - falls short. Fan based cooling is not waterproof or dustproof, it is noisy and is unable to remove heat adequately to meet the growing demand for increased performance.
The AirJet Mini Sport meets the rigorous IP68 standards, demonstrating full performance after submersion in over 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes. AirJet Mini Sport significantly increases performance in compact devices, enhancing AI processing capabilities in faster, silent, thinner, lighter, vibration free, dustproof and waterproof devices that can be used in any environment.
“Consumers are often faced with the need for their storage to operate in extreme conditions on hot, wet or dusty land or potentially submerged under water,” said Jay Kramer, Chairman of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors Inc. “We are proud to recognize Frore Systems AirJet Mini Sport, a unique waterproof cooling solution with dozens of patents, as a key differentiator for not only 8TB M.2 Thunderbolt SSDs, but as a solution that can solve the challenge of heat in hundreds of different applications.”
Frore Systems, a member of the NVIDIA Inception Program, also recently announced another industry first, the AirJet®PAK. The AirJet®PAKs are plug-and-play active cooling solutions that are only 6mm thick and complement NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin system-on-modules. AirJet PAKs are available in multiple sizes removing up to 25 watts of heat and supporting up to 100 TOPS.
The new waterproof AirJet Mini Sport, AirJet Mini Slim, and AirJet PAK, will be on display at the Future of Memory and Storage Conference, Booth 825 from Tuesday August 6 to Thursday August 8 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in San Jose, CA.

What does IP68 Mean
Ingress protection ratings (aka international protection ratings) are a standard set forth by the International Electrotechnical Commission. According to the organization, the codes are designed as a "system for classifying the degrees of protection provided by the enclosures of electrical equipment. The first number in the rating code represents the amount of protection provided against the entry of foreign solid objects, such as sand or dust. These protection levels range from a low of 0 to a high of 6.
The second number represents the degree of protection against the entry of moisture or liquid, with protection levels ranging from a low of 0 to a high of 9.
