Xilinx Enters Module Market For Vision AI

Vision is one of the hottest area for AI development because vision can or will be used for a wide variety of consumer and industrial applications. Everything from security systems and retail monitoring solutions to manufacturing quality control and autonomous machines require vision AI. Xilinx has been developing chips and tools for AI development leveraging the company's expertise in programmable/adaptable platforms. Now, Xilinx is introducing the Kria System-on-Module (SoM) just for vision AI applications. A module or SoM is a predesigned system or sub-system with the required chips already mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) that connect to other system components or interfaces.
