Body modded cyborg demonstrates how RFID and NFC Chips implanted in his hands allow him to live a key-free life

This is a video of “body modification expert and self-described cyborg” Russ Foxx demonstrating how the RFID (radio frequency identification) and NFC (near field communication) chips he’s had installed in his hands allow him to live an analog key-free life by unlocking his front door, starting his motorcycle’s engine, and unlocking a concealment table he built with the chips. The NFC chip in his hand can also be scanned using an NFC-enabled Android phone to automatically download all his business contact info. THE FUTURE. No word what the horns on top of his head are capable of, but I suspect the answer would blow our minds. “They’re just decorative.” *brain explodes*

Quantized Neural Networks for FPGA Inference

Sponsored 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.
