I started tinkering with frigate and saw the option to use a coral ai device to process the video feeds for object recognition.

So, I started checking a bit more what else could be done with the device, and everything listed in the site is related to human recognition (poses, faces, parts) or voice recognition.

In some part I read stable diffusion or LLMs are not an option since they require a lot of ram which these kind of devices lack.

What other good/interesting uses can these devices have? What are some of your deployed services using these devices for?

    Yeah, they are mostly designed for classification and inference tasks; given a piece of input data, decide which of these categories it belongs to - the sort of things you are going to want to do in near real time, where it isn’t really practical to ship off to a data centre somewhere for processing.
