Embedded Edge Vision ML

Definition

The deployment of quantized deep learning vision models onto resource-constrained microcontrollers (such as ESP32-S3) for localized, real-time image recognition.

Key Characteristics

• TFLite Micro and ESP-NN optimized tensor kernels.
• Sub-watt power consumption suitable for battery-powered kinetic sculptures and wearables.
• Privacy-preserving local processing where raw camera frames never leave the embedded chip.

Applications

• Kinetic interactive art
• Wearable computing
• Environmental sensing
