“On behalf of everyone at Quadric and our customers, we are delighted to receive this recognition of our unique AI processor IP," said Veerbhan Kheterpal, co-founder and CEO of Quadric. "AI chips don't have to be risky. While algorithms for edge AI constantly evolve, traditional NPU accelerators quickly become obsolete. Our Chimera processor solves this problem - it's easy to integrate and fully programmable, handling all operations in one unified stream. This allows us to run any AI model, future-proofing your investment even when models change. We're also investing heavily in software tools to simplify deployment and help you keep pace with AI advances. As inferencing expands across applications, the benefits of this architecture are substantial.”
Quadric’s Chimera processor is the only fully C++ programmable AI/ML inference solution that delivers the energy efficiency of a dedicated neural network accelerator plus the full flexibility of a programmable solution in a single architecture. A significant advantage of Quadric’s solution is that neural network graphs and C++ code are merged into a single, fully programmable software application. Only one tool chain is required for scalar, vector, and matrix computations.
