YOLOv5s DXNN Performance Evaluation​

The DX-RT component facilitates inference for dxnn models. To evaluate YOLOv5s model performance on the DX-M1, we use the run_model benchmark tool.

Inference latency on ROCK 5B+ via the DX-M1 includes three stages: Latency = PCIe I/F (Write Time) + NPU (Inference Time) + PCIe I/F (Read Time).

Fig.6 DX-M1 Latency Analysis

# run benchmark
run_model -m YOLOV5S_3.dxnn -b -l 1000

Fig.7 YOLOv5s DXNN Benchmark Results

The average inference time is 4628.91 μs, i.e., 216 FPS, after 1000 inductions on the single-core NPU of the DX-M1. With three NPU cores, the theoretical maximum speed of the DX-M1 is 648 FPS, which is very close to the benchmark result of 645.476 FPS.

YOLOv5s 30 Channels Video Stream Detection​

The DX-APP software package includes several computer vision demos that can be quickly deployed on the DX-M1 for tasks such as object detection and segmentation. In this example, Radxa performs object detection on 30 video streams simultaneously using the ROCK 5B+ and the DX-M1. The ROCK 5B+ decodes multiple video streams, sends the data to the DX-M1 for inference, and finally processes the output. It is worth to note that DX-APP recommends to use opencv 4.5.5, but since the FFmpeg version of the ROCK5B+ system is not compatible with Opencv 4.5.5, we compile the newest 4.10.0 version here.

# run multi-stream object detection
./bin/run_detector -c example/yolov5s3_example.json

Single-core NPU 30-channel video inference FPS: 240 FPS.

The era of local generative AI has arrived — AirBox now open for pre-orders! Experience Llama3 online today!

Radxa Computer has launched the world's first SG2300X Mini AI Box, now available for pre-order on Arace.tech for just $321!

Link to experience Llama3 on AirBox: Online Experience

Major players vie for edge generative AI.​

In 2024, running generative AI at the edge has become almost standard for the next generation of chips from companies like Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm.

The Rabbit R1, which gained traction at CES, promises natural language control of many smartphone apps using ChatGPT. While it sparked excitement among media, users who actually tested the product found single-task response times exceeding 20 seconds, leading to a poor user experience.

In situations where network access is poor, how can we achieve real-time, low-latency responses? The answer lies in placing generative AI services at the edge, rather than constantly transferring between the cloud, data centers, and edge nodes. Built on the SG2300x platform, the edge generative AI box Airbox boasts speeds of up to 12 tokens/s and StableDiffusion renders in just 1 second, bringing generative AI within reach.

Powered by SG2300X​

The SG2300X processor, with its 24 TOPS of computational power, can smoothly run generative AI models like LLAMA-2 7B.

The remarkable computational power of SG2300X enables it to process more data in shorter time frames, resulting in faster response times and delivering users a smoother and more intelligent experience.

Radxa Fogwise AirBox​

The Radxa Fogwise AirBox, developed by the Radxa team, is an edge AI box powered by SG2300X. It boasts a high computational power of up to 24 TOPS@INT8 and supports multiple precisions (INT8, FP16/BF16, FP32). It supports the deployment of mainstream AI models such as private GPT and text-to-image, and comes equipped with an aluminum alloy casing, allowing deployment in harsh environments.

AirBox Run Local Generative AI​

With high computational power and large memory, AirBox Run Local Generative AI Running the Llama-7B model on SG2300x, with weight quantization to INT4 and computation utilizing FP16, achieves up to 80% utilization during the first token calculation. Subsequent inferences benefit from kvcache, reducing computational demands while data transfer time completely covers computation time, shifting the bottleneck from computation to bandwidth.

Models like StableDiffusion continuously demand intensive computational power. Therefore, efficient execution of both LLM and Stable Diffusion models necessitates both high computational power and large memory. The main controller SG2300x in Airbox boasts 24TOPS of INT8, 12TFLOPS of FP16, 16G of memory, and 128-bit bandwidth, perfectly suited for the task.

Local execution with response times controlled within 1 second greatly enhances user experience. For instance, the latency of the qwen-7b model running on Airbox is 0.6s, with subsequent inference speeds reaching 12 tokens/s, meeting the real-time requirements of scenarios like natural language querying and voice interaction.

Airbox also functions as a complete Ubuntu Linux server, supporting CASAOS independently. As long as devices are connected, they can share its computational power. Antique PCs, tablets, smartphones, NAS, speakers, story machines, TVs, and other devices can all harness generative AI capabilities, turning "one device, multiple uses" into reality.

$321! Unbeatable value​

How does the efficiency of running generative AI locally on AirBox compare to mainstream edge computing products?

Taking various models from the Nvidia Jetson series that support generative AI as an example, the Jetson AGX Orin 32GB version is priced at $1097 on Amazon.com, while the 64GB version costs $2137.

With MLC acceleration, AGX Orin achieves 47 tokens/s for Llama-7B and 25 tokens/s for Llama-2-13B. On Airbox, the performance for Llama2-7B is 12 tokens/s, while Llama2-13B achieves 6 tokens/s. Airbox supports int4, int8, and fp16 precisions, with similar performance for Llama2 and its various variants. A single core can handle models up to 20B-int4.

(Note: Data for Orin is sourced from the official NVIDIA website; higher values are better in this context.)

Based on testing, it's found that AirBox offers a significant advantage in terms of tokens per second per unit of currency (product price) compared to AGX Orin.

For Llama-7B:

• AGX Orin (64GB) ≈ 0.02199 tokens per second/USD
• AirBox ≈ 0.03738 per second/USD

For Llama-13B:

• AGX Orin (64GB) ≈ 0.01169 per second/USD
• AirBox ≈ 0.01869 per second/USD

On AGX Orin, Stable Diffusion takes 2.2 seconds per image, while SDXL takes 23.1 seconds. After utilizing LCM acceleration on Airbox, SD1.5 takes 1.1 seconds, and SDXL takes 7.4 seconds.

(Note: Data for Orin is sourced from the official NVIDIA website; Orin's step count is not specified, assuming 20 steps; lower values are better in this context.)
