Silicon Valley, California , June 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — From the TinyML Summit Milan ItalyembedUR systems Inc., a leader in embedded systems and edge AI and TinyML sponsoring partner, is pleased to announce the release of ModelNova, a groundbreaking software hub for edge AI solutions.
ModelNova revolutionizes AI application development for small devices
ModelNova is a model zoo of pre-trained AI models, optimized for different software frameworks and a variety of low-power hardware platforms, with or without native AI acceleration. This innovative platform streamlines edge AI product development, enabling rapid prototyping and deployment of intelligent applications on edge devices in a fraction of the time it would take to develop an edge AI solution from scratch.
ModelNova addresses a major challenge developers face: the complexity of selecting, creating, training, porting and optimizing AI models for different hardware platforms, especially low-power IoT devices.
This is a critical process on which the success of your project largely depends. It requires extensive low-level firmware expertise and a deep understanding of the silicon you are optimizing, which is a rare skill set.
ModelNova fills this gap by providing a diverse collection of pre-trained models for AI vision, speech, sound, and more that are already fine-tuned to run on multiple combinations of hardware and software architectures.
Most AI models start out as academic research or open source implementations trained on specific datasets and not ready for real-world end product development. We leveraged our unique expertise in integrating AI with embedded software devices to maximize performance, minimize power usage, and adapt our models for use in real-world applications.
“Our platform removes the barrier to entry for AI prototyping and development on low-power devices, allowing engineers to focus on innovation instead of the complexities of hardware integration and optimization.” John MarconiVP of Technology at embedUR
Developers can now download models that they know will run on hardware similar to the one they are considering using and quickly assess the feasibility of their application. This dramatically reduces the time required to build a proof of concept and validate the hardware for an edge AI application, allowing developers to go from idea to proof of concept in days instead of months.
“With a focus on models for resource-constrained devices, ModelNova accelerates developers' journey to IoT edge AI and showcases what's possible with Synaptics' Astra™ AI-Native™ devices.” Vikram GuptaSVP and GM, Chief Product Officer, IoT Processors, Synaptics
Key benefits of ModelNova:
Rapid Prototyping: Developers can download pre-trained models for functions similar to those required for their application and see how well they perform on various platforms of their choice.
Streamlined development: Developers simply need to adapt or retrain existing models to perform new functions, which is much less work than building a model from scratch.
Access to Edge AI expertise: As a tool to integrate these models into the various platforms on which they run, embedUR helps optimize models, train application use cases, and integrate them into target hardware to accelerate time to market.
“This is an exciting resource for the developer community, opening up new possibilities for developing edge AI solutions at a faster pace.” Pete BernardExecutive Director of the TinyML Foundation.
Silicon vendors and platform creators building new AI-native hardware are encouraged to contact embedUR to port and optimize ModelNova's model libraries for their new devices.
ModelNova enables companies in every sector, from healthcare to agriculture, to explore new market opportunities with minimal upfront investment and risk.
