The 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things helps the vertical market to enhance the functions of graphics cards, improve AI performance and flexibility.
Latest news: Intel announced the launch of the 12th generation Intel for the edge of the Internet of things ® CoRE ™ System on chip (SOC). As a new dedicated edge product series optimized for Internet of things applications, this pioneering slot system chip can provide high-performance integrated graphics and media processing functions for visual computing loads. In addition, thanks to the compact space occupation and the operational thermal design power consumption (TDP) suitable for wide temperature operation, it can also help customers achieve a smaller and innovative appearance and fanless heat dissipation design, and help them achieve the sustainability goal of their products.

Jeni panhorst, vice president and general manager of network and edge computing department, said: "Affected by labor demand, supply chain constraints and changing consumer behavior, the digital transformation of enterprise business processes continues to accelerate, which makes the amount of data generated at the edge explode, and the demand for local processing and data analysis also soars. Intel understands the challenges faced by enterprises in various vertical industries and is committed to helping them continue to provide innovative application scenarios."

Significance: the digital transformation of the edge needs to improve processing capacity and AI reasoning performance to cope with the future oriented AI workload. The 12th generation intel core system chip suitable for the edge of the Internet of things meets these performance requirements, improves implementation configurability and overall solution flexibility, enables original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and original design manufacturers (ODMs) to quickly integrate and deliver solutions suitable for various vertical markets and specific edge application scenarios. In addition, this system chip has top-down management functions, including the Intel vPro option, which can provide first-class remote control and management functions, which is essential for managing and maintaining systems deployed at the edge of the Internet of things.

About the 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things: with the 10th generation Intel ® CoRE ™ Compared with the 12W / 65W models in the desktop processor series, the 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things can provide up to 4 times of graphics processing speed1 and up to 6.6 times of GPU image classification inference performance2. It has Intel built-in ® Hardware thread scheduler (Intel ® Thread director) can intelligently boot the operating system and allocate the corresponding workload to the appropriate kernel. In addition, with the 10th generation Intel ® CoRE ™ Compared with desktop processors, this system chip has as many as 14 cores and 20 threads, with a single thread performance improvement of 1.32 times and a multi thread performance improvement of 1.27 times.

The 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things also supports high-performance AI functions for reasoning and machine vision. Up to 96 EU of graphic execution units can realize high parallelism of AI workloads. At the same time, Intel ® Deep learning acceleration (Intel ® DL boost) and provides additional reasoning performance by built-in AI acceleration on the CPU. In addition, the processor fully supports Intel ® Release: openvino ™ （Intel ® Distribution of OpenVINO ™） Tool suite optimization and cross architecture reasoning.

Panhorst said, "by integrating CPU with high-performance integrated graphics card, enhanced visual computing and AI functions into a compact processing configuration, the 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things can help customers unlock more new opportunities - from customized retail outlet solutions to improved accurate imaging and pattern recognition of medical diagnosis."



The 12th generation intel core system chip facing the edge of the Internet of things can benefit all walks of life:



• customers in retail, banking, hotels and education will be able to expand the remote control and management functions of edge systems, improve the value of contactless points of sale, and quickly respond to changing supply and demand.

• customers in the field of industrial manufacturing can make better use of industrial PCs, edge servers, advanced controllers, machine vision systems and virtual control platforms.

• customers in the medical field will be able to provide enhanced ultrasound imaging functions, medical vehicles, endoscopy functions and clinical equipment at the edge.
