Demonstrating the high performance achievable with the Metis AIPU
Bram Verhoef, head of machine learning and co-founder of Axelera AI, highlights the company's impressive three-year journey in developing an advanced AI platform. This platform integrates both the Voyager SDK software and powerful hardware designed for optimal performance. The Voyager SDK simplifies deploying deep neural networks on Axelera AI's hardware, built on DIMC. This approach ensures energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, speed, and accuracy.
In this video, you will see the YOLO V5 model in action, running 16 streams simultaneously on a single chip. This demonstration underscores the capabilities of the Metis AI Processing Unit (AIPU). This chip, embedded on a PCIe card, can achieve up to 200 TOPS, making it ideal for various computer vision applications that handle multiple camera streams simultaneously.
