October 2020 Issue Interface AI Chip Encyclopedia & Performance Research
Basic Knowledge and Experimental Research on AI Chips/AI Sticks/AI Boards This article summarizes the basic knowledge and experimental research on notable AI chips, AI sticks that can be retrofitted with these chips, and AI boards that incorporate them into development boards. For AI sticks, we introduce the classic Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 (Movidus Myriad X VPU) and Google Coral USB Accelerator (Edge TPU), along with an experimental article featuring the Orange Pi AI Stick Lite, which is sold at an astonishing price using the Zhilifalcon Light Speeur SPR2801S. For AI boards, we cover the basic usage and performance research using the latest GPU board, Jetson Xavier NX, and conduct comparative verification against Raspberry Pi 4 and Google Edge TPU boards. We also explore the potential of the Kendryte K210, which has an AI chip built into RISC-V and is generating a lot of buzz. If you are interested in trying this out in a real business setting or have already tried it and are facing challenges, please feel free to consult with Bee.
