AI Accelerator Module: Disrupting AI
What is an Accelerator Module? The AI Accelerator Module is a modular M.2 card that contains an AI processor. Cards can typically produce around 26 tera-operations per second while being highly energy efficient; which is due to the AI processor being used being optimized for AI. These cards can support PCIe Gen-3.0 2-lane interfaces and deliver enhanced performance to edge devices. Due to the small form factor any edge device that has a compatible M.2 socket can utilize AI processing in real time. Through clever design these AI accelerator modules do not draw a lot of power while allowing software developers to quickly port their solutions to the AI module through robust SDK tools. Cards support standard AI workflows such as containers that can be rapidly integrated into the card. In addition to this, if the developer does not want to create an AI solution from scratch, they can use out of the box solutions that have been provided, with only minor changes needed. A New Approach These ...
