Unlock the Benefits of Artificial Intelligence for IoT Devices

The convergence of AI, 5G, and IoT technologies is resulting in a need for real-time information and responses. Network latency, data privacy, and consumer expectations around user experience and environmental impact are driving a shift to computing at the endpoint. Combining on-device intelligence with AI and ML capabilities has the potential to unlock new use cases and applications – we call this endpoint AI.

Arm offers new compute technologies coupled with software and tools to help companies streamline the design, development, and support for AI-based IoT applications. The Cortex-M55 processor and Ethos family of microNPUs, combined with Arm tools deliver up to a 480x leap in ML performance, bringing endpoint AI to billions of devices.

The Dawn of Endpoint AI: Bringing Compute Closer to Data

Only 1 percent to 12 percent of company data is actually analyzed, according to a new report by Strategy Analytics. The ability to perform advanced localized processing closer to where data is collected results in faster and more accurate responses, allowing companies to maximize data insights.

 

This new report takes an in-depth look at endpoint AI and the new opportunities it enables, and explores the potential benefits and impacts of implementing endpoint AI across key application areas and use cases.
