A collaboration between JMO and CODICO has delivered a triple-camera synthetic intelligence (AI) imaginative and prescient system, powered by a Qualcomm Dragonwing chip and delivering full help for the Edge Impulse platform: the PERSPEC-1.
“PERSPEC-1 is powered by a strong Qualcomm Dragonwing SoC [System-on-Chip], and is totally appropriate with the tip to finish AI improvement platform from Edge Impulse,” the businesses say of their creation. “It allows concurrent help for 3 excessive decision cameras with help in our compute and AI module for superior concurrent AI processing, delivering a complete of 12 TOPS [Tera-Operations Per Second] of AI processing energy in a cheap and rugged package deal. Our resolution has been developed to run multi-camera, multi-modal AI workloads in industrial settings comparable to automated product inspection, high quality management, course of monitoring, and different use circumstances.”
The {hardware} is constructed across the Qualcomm Dragonwing QCS6490 system-on-chip, the identical as present in Qualcomm’s personal RB3 Gen 2 robotics platform — that includes one high-performance Arm Cortex-A78 Kryo Gold Plus core working at as much as 2.7GHz, three Cortex-A78 Kryo Gold cores working at as much as 2.4GHz, and and 4 low-power Cortex-A55 Kryo Silver cores working at as much as 1.9GHz, a sixth-generation Qualcomm AI Engine with Hexagon 770 tensor and scalar accelerators and vector processing extensions delivering as much as 12 tera-operations per second (TOPS) of minimum-precision compute, an Adreno 643L graphics processor, and an Adreno 633 imaginative and prescient processing unit, together with triple-band Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 radios.
Within the case of the PERSPEC-1, this energy is delivered to bear on a triple-camera AI imaginative and prescient system that includes a 12 megapixel decision at 30 frames per second. Growth of the AI mannequin itself takes place by the Edge Impulse Studio platform, with the required software program put in atop the bundled Canonical Ubuntu 20.04 Linux working system — a considerably outdated, and out-of-mainstream-support, model, which can hopefully quickly be upgraded to the recently-fully-certified Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Extra info on the PERSPEC-1 is offered on the CODICO web site, the place it is up on the market at €1,999 (round $2,400) together with digicam modules; particulars on utilizing it with Edge Impulse is offered on the corporate’s documentation website.
