AI coprocessor for your Raspberry Pi
« on: April 30, 2023, 12:33 PM »
This from Google:

“The Coral USB Accelerator adds a Coral Edge TPU to your Linux, Mac, or Windows computer so you can accelerate your machine learning models. This page is your guide to get started.
All you need to do is download the Edge TPU runtime and PyCoral library. Then we'll show you how to run a TensorFlow Lite model on the Edge TPU.
To learn more about the hardware, see the USB Accelerator datasheet.”

Currently I use it with a RasPi 4B 4GB in conjunction with Frigate monitoring three security cameras.

Originally bought it a couple of years ago to play with NSFW image detection but unfortunately the trained data wasn't available in TFLite and I couldn't get it to convert.
