Powered by an Arduino Mega 2560, the Ardu McDuino is an impressive creation to see in action as its individually-articulated fingers are actually covering and uncovering the holes on a real bagpipe, producing the individual notes you hear. For the 12 of you who love the sound of bagpipes, you can get a full breakdown of how XenonJohn built this bot over on his Instructables page.

 Quantized Neural Networks for FPGA InferenceSponsored by Intel Implementing a low precision network in FPGA hardware for efficient inferencing provides numerous advantages when it comes to meeting demanding specifications. The increased flexibility allows optimization of throughput, overall power consumption, resource usage, device size, TOPs/watt, and deterministic latency. These are important benefits where scaling and efficiency are inherent requirements of the application. |
