Kneron M2AI-2242-520 AI Edge Computing Module

Kneron M2AI-2242-520 AI Edge Computing Module is designed to bring Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) inferencing to existing systems. Based on the KL520 Neural Processor Unit (NPU), the M2AI-2242-520 connects to embedded systems that support M.2 22mm x 42mm modules. The KL520 provides an efficient AI computing performance of 0.56 TOPS per Watt, perfect for remote, mobile, and unmanned applications.

The Kneron M2AI-2242-520 AI Edge Computing Module is available individually (PER-T520-M2AI-0421) or paired with an EverFocus EUA1200 Full HD Camera (PER-T520-M2AI-K421).
