Closed-System Edge AI Companies

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the ability of machines and systems to perform complex tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as recognizing faces, understanding speech, and processing natural language. Edge AI is a type of AI that runs on devices and systems that are located at the edge of a network, where data is created and used. Edge AI makes these devices and systems faster, more efficient, and more secure for doing AI tasks.

Flex Logix is a company that offers Edge AI solutions using its InferX line of inference accelerators. Inference accelerators are hardware devices that can run different deep-learning models in real-time. InferX products use a special technology called TPU, which can change its configuration to match different types of neural networks and data. InferX products can handle high amounts of data with low delay and low energy consumption for Edge AI tasks such as detecting objects, recognizing faces, and understanding natural language. InferX products come in different shapes and sizes, such as PCIe, M.2, and chip, and can work with trained models written in ONNX and TFLITE formats. Flex Logix is also part of the Edge AI and Vision Alliance, a global group of industry partners that works to promote the use of AI and vision features in products and systems.
