Coral NPU: Tiny Chips, Big Possibilities for Edge AI

5:38

What would it take to put useful AI into a smartwatch, a sensor, or a small robot—and let developers carry their work from one chip to another? We explore Google’s Coral NPU, an open hardware and software approach to making on-device intelligence more practical. The episode connects its RISC-V architecture and dedicated matrix engine with the compiler tools that turn machine learning models into…
