IoT Applications and AI at The Edge Level – EE Times Asia
Edge computing will increasingly become an integral part of the digital transformation phenomenon. The main benefits deriving from the use of these technologies are the reduction of processing latency, which allows real-time responses, and the saving of bandwidth, sending already processed and, therefore, smaller information to the data center.
Compared to GreenWaves Technologies’ currently shipping product, GAP8, the latest GAP9 reduces energy consumption by 5 times while enabling inference on neural networks 10 times larger. GAP9 is built on the same GAP architectural layout of the GAP8. GreenWaves’ GAP8 is the industry’s first ultra-low-power processor designed to transfer high edge processing capacity with particularly low costs and power consumption. It enables battery-powered artificial intelligence (AI) in the Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
