Introduction :

Artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning and machine learning embedded applications need a powerful processing boards with special features. Sipeed Maixduino AI development kit With integrated Micropython is an excellent start . Unlike the conventional C or C++ seen in most hardware boards, the Maixduino integrates Micropython to make development smooth and straightforward.

At the heart of the Sipeed Maixduino platform is the AI chip K210, a dual-core RISC-V with an FPU. It serves as adual-core processing with independent FPU, 64-bit CPU and 8M in-built SRAM. It supports multiplication, division and square root operation. Chip K210 can perform operations such as convolution, batch normalization, activation and pooling. This module can realize face detection, voice, color and object recognition, MNIST handwritten digit recognition, feature map visualization, tiny yolov2 and so on.

Maixduino was designed in an Arduino Uno form factor, making the Arduino IDE and libraries support the Maix series of development boards (k210 chips), making it easy to use a large number of existing open source Arduino libraries for rapid development and prototyping
