The KL720 in intended to be the brain of smart devices and will allow them to recognise what they could previously only see, and listen to what they could previously only hear, according to the company.
The KL720 has been designed with significantly enhanced processing power, and is capable of processing images up to 4K resolution and videos up to Full HD 1080p resolution.
The company claims that it marks a new standard for audio processing with the KL720 supporting full natural language processing. The KL720 can also hold an entire dictionary’s worth of words for use in translation applications.
Albert Liu, Founder & CEO of Kneron, says: “KL720 combines power with unmatched energy-efficiency and Kneron’s industry-leading AI algorithms to enable a new era for smart devices. Its low cost enables even more devices to take advantage of the benefits of edge AI, protecting user privacy, to an extent competitors can't match. Combined with our existing KL520, we are proud to offer the most comprehensive suite of AI chips and software for devices on the market.”
The KL720 will soon be available for sampling by device manufacturers.
