This is their own press release. What does that kind of hardware for CV primitives have to do with deep learning?
(Also, of course, this stick doesn't seem to have any kind of connectivity besides the USB to the host computer. How do I connect my camera? Having to shuffle the data from a camera to the stick passing the host computer somewhat defeats the point.)
- krasin 11y ago>What does that kind of hardware for CV primitives have to do with deep learning? They have hardware convolutions on 12 SHAVE cores (kind of a DSP core). It means that the chip can run some useful subset of convolutional neural networks very fast and energy efficient. They also have 2 general purpose SPARC cores, which allows you to have a "normal" program running there. Not sure, how locked the USB stick going to be, and if running your custom program would be an option. >How do I connect my camera? The chip itself has a couple of MIPI lanes. The USB stick likely does not expose that. And I agree, that's suboptimal.
