Imagine if your smart devices had a brain as powerful as a giant data center but used very little electricity. This project builds a special chip and a simple software tool to make that happen. It allows machines to understand speech and images instantly without needing to send data to the cloud.
Current AI models for vision and language are too power-hungry and expensive to run locally on edge devices. This creates a bottleneck for real-time applications in smart cities and industry 4.0.
The Europa AI-Core architecture and a corresponding System-on-Chip (SoC). It includes a software platform with a no-code web composer for easier AI deployment.
If you are a smart factory operator dealing with slow response times in quality control — this project developed a hardware and software platform that accelerates computer vision at a fraction of the costs and power consumption of current solutions.
If you are an automated store provider dealing with high energy bills for AI cameras — this project developed the Europa AI-Core that enables real-time decision-making at the edge with high energy efficiency.
If you are a surveillance firm dealing with the need for local natural language processing — this project developed a scalable SoC that works from a single embedded device to edge datacenters.
The solution is designed to accelerate the latest generation of neural network models at a fraction of the costs of available solutions.
Yes, the hardware is highly scalable, ranging from a single device in an embedded system to multiple instances on cards in an edge datacenter.
Based on available project data, the project focuses on the development of the Europa AI-Core architecture and SoC, but specific licensing terms are not provided.
The project includes a no-code web composer and a consistent development environment to drive the adoption of AI.
The project period runs from 2024-03-01 to 2026-02-28.
The project is led by a single SME, Axelera AI BV from the Netherlands. This 100% industry-led consortium indicates a strong commercial drive, leveraging a leadership team with 20+ years of experience in major tech corporations like Asus and Advantech.
