Google Coral USB Edge TPU ML Accelerator coprocessor for Raspberry Pi and Other Embedded Single Board Computers

Product Information

I did run my MobilenetSSD_v2 on the Coral Development board and it works great for HD cameras getting about 20 fps without display round robin for 8 1080p camers, but it chokes on 4K streams with 2 or 3 cameras being about it. There are 8 products in the current Coral portfolio, with 3 new additional products that have been announced in November 2020. Since the RPi 3B+ doesn’t have USB 3, that’s not much we can do about that until the RPi 4 comes out — once it does, we’ll have even faster inference on the Pi using the Coral USB Accelerator. For compatibility with the Edge TPU, you must use either quantization-aware training (recommended) or full integer post-training quantization. Google Coral is an edge AI hardware and software platform for intelligent edge devices with fast neural network inferencing.

Comparing a first generation Movidius Neural Compute Stick (left), a second generation Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 (middle), and the new Coral USB Accelerator from Google (right).wb666greene, I know this is an old message, but I am curious and I would like to ask you why do you consider the NCS2 far inferior to the Coral TPU.

The Coral USB Accelerator provides powerful MLinference capabilities inLinux, Windows and macOS through a USB 3. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.

Instead of building your model from scratch, you could retrain an existing model that's already compatible with the Edge TPU, using transfer learning. So yeah… it’s not only doable but with the example schematics provided by Coral and Framework, it is 15 min work. Low-power usage: The small single-board computers or USB modules require very little power compared to rather power-hungry GPU chips. The Coral range is a fantastic platform from by Google that allows for high-speed machine learning and AI prototyping through to production, Let’s take a look at all of the items available in the range.
