Abstract:
This year Google announced the Coral Dev Board which is a low cost development board to quickly prototype on-device ML products. The development board is based on a removable system-on-module (SoM).
The official supported software for the Coral Dev Board is Mendel OS, which is a Debian derivative. This is a fairly common approach, to provide a Debian derivative, making it very easy to get started to prototype on the hardware.
For a production grade setup it is preferable to use Yocto/OE-core and in this presentation Mirza will go through the process of creating meta-coral which is a BSP layer supporting the Google Coral Dev Board.
This layer is heavily based on the available BSP components that are offered in Mendel OS. Mirza will also cover current status of meta-coral as in what works and what does not, and possible future development where he is looking for collaborators.
There will also be a live demonstrating successfully booting an Yocto/OE-core image on the Google Coral Dev Board.
