Synaptics’ Katana platform brings intelligence to the edge by enabling energy-efficient AI endpoint solutions that can make autonomous decisions from data collected by vision and audio sensing. It provides ultra-low power per inference in a flexible, easy to use AI platform. Katana is a highly integrated edge AI SoC designed for battery powered wireless devices equipped with audio or camera capabilities for consumer and industrial IoT applications.
Katana is optimized for a wide range of ultra-low power AI use cases in edge devices for office buildings, retail, factories, warehouses, robotics, farms and smart homes and cities. It is designed for a wide range of energy constrained IoT applications, and particularly well-suited for retrofitting, use in remote locations, outdoors and for infrastructure level deployment.
Eta Compute’s TENSAI Platform optimizes the implementation of Neural Networks on the Katana Edge AI processors, improving the energy per inference by an order of magnitude or more.
Our Edge AI evaluation kit (EVK) is based on the Synaptics low-power Katana system-on-chip (SoC) platform, the kit combines vision, motion, and sound detection hardware and software with wired and wireless connectivity to simplify the design and development of edge AI for the Internet of Things (IoT), including smart home, building, industrial, and monitoring applications.
