Simplifying accelerator integration for FPGA-based edge AI solutions with Accelerator Interface Generator, by Antmicro

Dec 6, 2023

Antmicro published a new article titled Simplifying accelerator integration for FPGA-based edge AI solutions with Accelerator Interface Generator.

The Accelerator Interface Generator (AIG), a configurable vendor-independent tool designed to stream-interface accelerators utilizing DMAs, was introduced by Antmicro. AIG relies on Antmicro’s open source FastVDMA tool for performing data I/O operations between a user-defined accelerator and the main memory, working independently from the CPU.

The Accelerator Interface Generator can leverage the flexibility of FPGAs to build tailored edge AI solutions. The framework was built as part of the VEDLIoT project.
