Getting Started with Mini PICe Accelerator
The Coral M.2 Accelerator from Google includes the Edge TPU coprocessor in systems and products. This module assimilates x86 platforms and ARM. The Coral Mini PCIe M.2 Accelerator can incorporate local Machine Learning (ML) acceleration to the industrial gateway, SBCs, embedded platforms, etc. This Mini accelerator weighs only 3.1 grams and it is an A/E dual-key M.2 card.
What is Google Edge TPU?
The Edge TPU has been created by Google for boosting up the TensorFlow Lite models. This small ASIC is a $TOPS ASIC and uses power very efficiently. Out of the total 2Watts used, each Watt is consumed for 2 Trillion Operations. TPU can be helpful in many applications like the application for execution of mobile vision models e.g., MobileNet v2. The Edge TPU cuts down the complacency and enhances data privacy. It is the on-device ML processing that cuts down the need for a steady internet connection.
