Two AI Processors Push Computer Vision to the Next Level for IoT and Automotives - News

Between booming fields like autonomous vehicles and robotics, computer vision has become one of the hottest applications of artificial intelligence. Arguably more so than other AI applications, computer vision relies heavily on the underlying hardware, where software performance can be limited by the underlying processing units and imaging systems. For this reason, EEs across the board are focused on pushing the boundaries of state-of-the-art and developing the best vision hardware possible. To go along with this push, multiple smaller-name companies, specifically Syntiant and Intuitive, have been aiming to make headlines. This article will take a look at each company's latest advancement to get a feel for what's happening in the industry as a whole.
