  • Publication number: 20210400315
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods related to a Deep Learning Accelerator and memory are described. For example, a removable media (e.g., a memory card, or a USB drive) may be configured to execute instructions with matrix operands and configured with: an interface to receive a video stream; and random access memory to buffer a portion of the video stream as an input to an Artificial Neural Network and to store instructions executable by the Deep Learning Accelerator and matrices of the Artificial Neural Network. Such a removable media can be used to replace an existing removable media used in a surveillance camera to record video or images. The Deep Learning Accelerator can execute the instructions to generate analytics of the buffer portion using the Artificial Neural Network, enabling the surveillance camera that is upgraded via the use of the removable media to provide intelligent services based on the analytics.
