About OpenVINO Tool Kits

[Blues-sptn]

If you want to use OpenVINO on the edge side to implement the inference function, is the following recognition correct?

Please let me know if there is any difference in perception.

*An external processor (Windows 10 or Linux or Mac) is required because the OpenVINO toolkit needs to be installed.

Is it okay if the processor itself is not an Intel product?

*Accelerators are only available for products supported by:. Therefore, it cannot be used in the company board which mounted the Arria 10 SOC chip.

So if I want to use an FPGA for inference processing operations, do I need to buy a supported accelerator board?

*Is there currently no AI solution that can be implemented on an Intel FPGA SOC series chip alone?

Hi,

Thank you for reaching us. We will contact our concerned team regarding this and will get back to you soon once we received an update. Meanwhile we have a dedicated forum https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/computer-vision for OpenVino related issues. We urge you to post your question there for a faster response.

Thank you for an answer.

Please let me know when you have the information.

Also, thank you for the information about the forum. I will use it.

Hi Blues-sptn,

The OpenVINO toolkit needs to be installed on a system running Windows 10, Linux or MAC that meet the system requirements. The development platform requires a 6th to 9th generation Intel Core or Intel Xeon Processors. For FPGA, you will need to use Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS (64 bit) or CentOS 7.4 (64 bit).

The Arria 10 SOC chip is not on the supported list of devices, you will need to use one of the FPGA that listed here: http://docs.openvinotoolkit.org/latest/_docs_install_guides_installing_openvino_linux_fpga.html#install-hardware

Hope this answers your questions!

Regards,

Jesus

Thank you for an answer.

Intel seems to have multiple AI solutions, so it would be helpful if you could organize them by application.

Let me close this case.
