▁grant ▁agreement ▁number ▁ 6 4 3 9 2 4 . ▁The ▁purpose ▁of ▁the ▁project , ▁which ▁is ▁fund ed ▁under ▁the ▁Sm art ▁Cy ber - phys ical ▁systems ▁topic , ▁is ▁to ▁develop ▁a ▁generic ▁hardware - software ▁platform ▁for ▁embedded , ▁efficient ▁( i . e . ▁battery - oper ated , ▁wear able , ▁mobile ), ▁computer ▁vision , ▁including ▁deep ▁learning ▁inference . ▁ ▁On ▁November ▁ 2 9 , ▁ 2 0 1 8 , ▁the ▁European ▁Space ▁Agency ▁announced ▁that ▁it ▁was ▁testing ▁the ▁suit ability ▁of ▁the ▁device ▁for ▁space ▁applications ▁in ▁advance ▁of ▁a ▁flight ▁in ▁a ▁Cub es at . ▁ ▁Mot iv ation ▁E o T ▁is ▁based ▁on ▁the ▁following ▁ten ets : ▁ ▁Future ▁embedded ▁systems ▁will ▁have ▁more ▁intelligence ▁and ▁cogn itive ▁functionality . ▁V ision ▁is ▁param ount ▁to ▁such ▁intellig ent ▁capacity ▁ ▁Un like ▁other ▁sens ors , ▁vision ▁requires ▁int ensive ▁processing . ▁Power ▁consumption ▁must ▁be ▁optimized ▁if ▁vision ▁is ▁to ▁be ▁used ▁in ▁mobile ▁and ▁wear able ▁applications ▁ ▁Cloud ▁processing ▁of ▁edge - capt ured ▁images ▁is ▁not ▁sust ain able . ▁The ▁she er ▁amount ▁of ▁visual ▁data ▁generated ▁cannot ▁be ▁transferred ▁to ▁the ▁cloud . ▁Band width ▁is ▁not ▁sufficient ▁and ▁cloud ▁servers ▁cannot ▁co pe ▁with ▁it . ▁ ▁Part ners ▁V IS IL AB ▁group ▁at ▁University ▁of ▁Cast illa – La ▁Man cha ▁( Co ordin ator ) ▁ ▁Mov id ius ▁▁ ▁A wa iba
