Image Processing For Vision AI
By Renesas - 23 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Recent years have seen an increasing need for Vision AI applications using AI to enable real-time image recognition. Vision AI, which substitutes AI for human visual recognition, requires optimal image processing. Renesas has released RZ/V2M as mid-class, and RZ/V2L as an entry class, Vision AI microprocessors (MPUs). Both products are equipped with DRP-AI which is Dynamically Reconfigurable Pr... » read more

eFPGA Saved Us Millions of Dollars. It Can Do the Same for You
By Andy Jaros - 03 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

For those of you who follow Flex Logix, you already know that we have an IP business, EFLX eFGPA, and an edge inferencing co-processor chip and board business, InferX. InferX came about because we had many customers ask if they can run AI/ML algorithms in EFLX. The answer was and still is, of course you can – EFLX is an FPGA fabric similar to what FPGA chips use. Our co-founder, Cheng Wang, t... » read more

Getting Better Edge Performance & Efficiency From Acceleration-Aware ML Model Design
By Vlad Bronstein - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

The advent of machine learning techniques has benefited greatly from the use of acceleration technology such as GPUs, TPUs and FPGAs. Indeed, without the use of acceleration technology, it’s likely that machine learning would have remained in the province of academia and not had the impact that it is having in our world today. Clearly, machine learning has become an important tool for solving... » read more
