Edge AI

Your data. Your model. Your edge.

From saving bandwidth and energy to more responsive real-time performance, implementing AI in your embedded applications offers massive benefits beyond the buzzwords. Nordic Semiconductor offers two unique technologies, Neuton models and Axon NPU, exclusively to our customers, to cover the industry's broadest range of devices, applications, and customer needs.

 Neuton models

 

Axon NPU

Custom Neuton models are ultra-tiny edge AI models built from your data using our patented network-growing algorithm, ideal for running edge AI on any Nordic SoC or SiP using its main application core (CPU).    The Axon NPU is our dedicated AI accelerator core, designed to increase the speed and efficiency of TensorFlow Lite models, built into our most capable SoCs.

Nordic Edge AI Lab

Nordic Edge AI Lab is your gateway to ultra-efficient edge intelligence. Powered by our patented neural network framework, it transforms your sensor data into compact, high-performance AI models ready to deploy on Nordic’s ultra-low-power SoCs and SiPs in just minutes. There is no data science knowledge or experience required, only a good dataset and a can-do attitude, the Edge AI Lab handles the rest. 

Documentation for the Edge AI Lab is available here.
