Inaccel推出使用FPGA簇结构并实现超记录快速人脸识别检测方案

San Jose, November 3, 2020 -- InAccel, a world-pioneer in the domain of FPGA-based accelerators, today released the results of a test in which a cluster of eight FPGAs in a single server were used to achieve 1266 fps in a facial detection speed test. “We are excited about today’s results,” said Chris Kachris, CEO of Inaccel, “the limitations faced by CPU and GPU-based facial detection systems will be shattered by applications that utilize FPGA clusters.” The test was conducted on an FPGA cluster operated by VMaccel, a cloud service provider specializing in FPGA-based High-Performance Computing located in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Object detection in video is a computationally intensive task that requires large amounts of processing power. FPGA-based hardware acceleration can provide enhanced processing power to increase throughput and decrease latency. Inaccel offers its clients an integrated framework that allows them to utilize the power of FPGA clusters for facial detection and other intensive applications. Together, VMaccel and Inaccel can support deploying these workloads efficiently across hundreds of FPGAs.

FPGAs are adaptable hardware platforms that can more efficiently offer greater performance and lower latency than GPUs. These efficiencies can be used to run any computationally intensive applications such as machine learning, video processing, quantitative finance, or genomics. However, deployment of applications on FPGAs by users with no prior experience can be challenging. Inaccel provides an FPGA resource manager that allows instant deployment, scaling and resource management. Users can deploy their application using Python, Spark, Jupyter notebooks or even terminals. Inaccel is making its platform available for demonstration purposes to qualified parties.
