Avery Williams, Channel Marketing Manager for Microchip Technology, demonstrates the company’s latest edge AI and vision technologies and products at the 2025 Embedded Vision Summit. Specifically, Williams demonstrates ultra-efficient AI-powered facial recognition on Microchip’s PolarFire SoC FPGA using the VectorBlox Accelerator SDK.
Pre-trained neural networks are quantized to INT8 and compiled to run directly on the FPGA’s embedded RISC-V cores—delivering high performance with no heat sink, no fan, and best-in-class security. This solution is ideal for edge applications requiring low power, high reliability, and robust inference capability.
