## Description

**A development board to quickly prototype on-device ML products.**

The Google Coral Dev Board Mini is a single-board computer that provides fast machine learning (ML) inferencing in a small form factor. It's primarily designed as an evaluation device for theAccelerator Module(a surface-mounted module that provides the Edge TPU), but it's also a fully-functional embedded system you can use for various on-device ML projects.

[A camera module designed specifically for the Google Coral range is available here.](https://core-electronics.com.au/products/google-coral-camera)

### Performs high-speed ML inferencing[](https://coral.ai/products/dev-board-mini#performs-high-speed-ml-inferencing)

The on-board Edge TPU coprocessor is capable of performing 4 trillion operations (tera-operations) per second (TOPS), using 0.5 watts for each TOPS (2 TOPS per watt). For example, it can execute state-of-the-art mobile vision models such as MobileNet v2 at almost 400 FPS, in a power efficient manner.[See more performance benchmarks](https://coral.ai/docs/edgetpu/benchmarks/).

### Provides a complete system[](https://coral.ai/products/dev-board-mini#provides-a-complete-system)

A single-board computer with SoC + ML + wireless connectivity, all on the board running a derivative of Debian Linux we call Mendel, so you can run your favorite Linux tools with this board.

### Supports TensorFlow Lite[](https://coral.ai/products/dev-board-mini#supports-tensorflow-lite)

No need to build models from the ground up.[TensorFlow Lite](https://www.tensorflow.org/lite)models can be compiled to run on the Edge TPU.

### Supports AutoML Vision Edge[](https://coral.ai/products/dev-board-mini#supports-automl-vision-edge)

Easily build and deploy fast, high-accuracy custom image classification models to your device with[AutoML Vision Edge](https://cloud.google.com/vision/automl/docs/edge-quickstart).
