Intelligent Digital Camera having Deep Learning Accelerator and Random Access Memory

Abstract:

Systems, devices, and methods related to a Deep Learning Accelerator and memory are described. For example, a digital camera may be configured to execute instructions with matrix operands and configured with: a housing; a lens; an image sensor positioned behind the lens to generate image data of a field of view of the digital camera; random access memory to store instructions executable by the Deep Learning Accelerator and store matrices of an Artificial Neural Network; a transceiver; and a controller configured to generate, and communicate using the transceiver to a separate computer, a description of an item or event in the field of view captured in the image data, based on an output of the Artificial Neural Network receiving the image data as an input. The separate computer may selectively request a portion of image data from the digital camera based on the processing of the description.
