Announcing Google’s New TPU Dev Board for Machine Learning on the Edge

Google just launched Coral, a Beta platform for building intelligent devices with local AI. To enable this initiative, Google is making an edge version of its TensorFlow Processing Unit available for sale for the first time. “Our first hardware components feature the new Edge TPU, a small ASIC designed by Google that provides high-performance ML inferencing for low-power devices. For example, it can execute state-of-the-art mobile vision models such as MobileNet V2 at 100+ fps, in a power efficient manner.”
