"The heart" may be a strong term - the eyes and hands, maybe, but the brain, at least, appears to be separate.
Still a very cool project.
- ed25519FUUU 6y agoI’m surprised an RPI can’t be optimized to run the CNN classifier. It has up to 8 GB of ram and a pretty decent integrated GPU.
- ChuckNorris89 6y agoThe problem is its GPU was always poorly documented or not at all since Broadcom considered it proprietary IP and never provided any detailed low-level documentation.
