AI at the Edge - Can I run a neural network in a resource-constrained device?

Stephen MartinStephen Martin March 11, 20192 comments

AI at the edge is no longer science fiction, it can run on tiny, resource-constrained devices like Arm Cortex-M4 and M7 microcontrollers. This post introduces inference-only neural networks on MCUs, explains why edge AI matters for power, latency, and privacy, and points to practical toolchains such as STM32Cube.AI, Arm NN, and AWS Greengrass to get started quickly.
