UP Edge AI Toolkit – Seamless integration from software to hardware for rapid AI development

The new UP Edge AI Toolkit gives developers a complete framework to build, convert, and deploy AI models across the UP hardware ecosystem. By combining one-click runtime environment setup, cross-platform model conversion, embedded benchmarking tools, and out-of-the-box compatibility with UP devices such as the UP Xtreme ARL, UP Squared Pro 710H Edge, and the upcoming Intelli i14 Edge, this free toolkit makes AI project development and deployment faster, simpler, and more reliable.

First Step: What You Can Do with the UP Edge AI Toolkit

One-Click Runtime Environment Setup
The toolkit brings together all required SDKs, drivers, and libraries for Intel, NVIDIA, and Hailo into a single package. With just one click, you can create a unified, platform-agnostic runtime environment ready for development.

Embedded Performance Benchmarking
Easily evaluate multiple AI models on the same hardware platform. Measure latency, throughput, power consumption, and thermal efficiency across Intel, NVIDIA, and Hailo solutions without needing to test each model separately on different systems.

Cross-Platform Model Conversion
Convert pre-trained models into formats optimised for UP hardware. With support for Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™, HailoRT, and NVIDIA® CUDA® Toolkit, the UP Edge AI Toolkit ensures platform-specific optimisation for maximum performance.

Integrated Edge AI Sizing Tool
Experiment with workload parameters such as batch size, precision modes, and accelerator selection without manually reconfiguring pipelines. The Intel Edge AI Sizing Tool, included in the toolkit, provides zero-code configuration, real-time performance insights, and an isolated testing environment so you can determine scalability before investing project resources.

Next Step: Choose the Right Hardware for Your Project

With the UP Edge AI Toolkit, you can build, test, and iterate across Intel, NVIDIA, and Hailo platforms quickly and efficiently, removing common barriers to proof of concept development.

UP Squared Pro 710H Edge + Hailo
Run advanced AI models on the UP Squared Pro 710H Edge, a compact fanless Mini PC powered by Intel® Processor N-series. Its onboard Hailo-8™ edge AI accelerator ensures efficient, low-power performance for demanding inference tasks.

UP Xtreme ARL (Arrow Lake)
Powered by Intel® Core™ Ultra 200H Series processors, the UP Xtreme ARL delivers up to 97 TOPS of AI performance. It’s ideal for next-generation robotics and AMR solutions, allowing you to optimise your applications with the AI models that fit best, across platforms.

Intelli i14 Edge + NVIDIA
Combine the Intelli i14 Edge, built on 14th Gen Intel® Core™ processors, with NVIDIA® RTX™ A2000 or RTX™ A4500 GPUs to unlock elite performance for advanced models, enabling cutting-edge AI workloads on a rugged, compact platform.
