AI-capable intelligence for robotics applications

Xilinx

Xilinx has introduced the new Versal AI Edge series. It enables rapid AI innovations from the edge to the endpoint. With 4 times the AI performance per watt compared to GPUs and 10 times the computing density compared to adaptive SoCs of the previous generation, the Versal AI Edge series offers a scalable and flexible portfolio for distributed intelligent systems.

The Versal AI Edge series uses the production-proven 7 nm Versal architecture and miniaturizes it for AI computing power with low latency, all with a power consumption of only six watts and with the security measures required in edge applications.

As a heterogeneous platform with different processors, the Versal AI Edge series adapts the engine to the algorithm, with Scalar Engines for embedded calculations, Adaptable Engines for sensor fusion and hardware adaptability and Intelligent Engines for AI inference that can handle up to 479 (INT4) TOPS scales and for advanced signal processing workloads for vision, radar, LiDAR and software defined radio.
