Munich based Kortiq is focusing on easy-to-use, small. efficient, scalable and flexible FPGA based machine learning hardware accelerators to enable fast and efficient implemention of algorithms and methodologies in artifical intelligence applications. Kortiq’s first design, the AIScale convolutional neural network accelerator, provides low cost edge machine learning inference for the embedded vision industry. AIScale makes it easy for system designers to implement machine learning functionality, such as image recognition, and helps enabling this new technology in their industrial embedded vision- or robotics systems. The novel way of mapping calculations to hardware resources in combination with highly advanced compression methods, which offer a significant reduction in required external memory transfer size and power, enable a fast turnaround from idea to product, with having an efficient and economic solution in mind.
