This is Coral TPU M.2 B+M Module. The Coral is a brand and platform developed by Google that focuses on edge AI and machine learning. It provides hardware and software components to accelerate AI and machine learning tasks on edge devices, such as IoT devices and single-board computers. TPU (Tensor Processing Unit): Googles TPU is a specialized hardware accelerator designed for AI and machine learning workloads. TPUs are known for their high computational efficiency and are commonly used for deep learning inference tasks. M.2 B+M Module: M.2 is a form factor for expansion cards and solid-state drives (SSDs) commonly used in laptops and desktop computers. The B+M refers to the keying of the M.2 module, indicating the type of interface and form factor it supports.

The Edge TPU is a small ASIC designed by Google that accelerates TensorFlow Lite models in a power efficient manner: its capable of performing 4 trillion operations per second (4 TOPS), using 2 watts of powerthats 2 TOPS per watt. For example, one Edge TPU can execute state-of-the-art mobile vision models such as MobileNet v2 at almost 400 frames per second. This on-device ML processing reduces latency, increases data privacy, and removes the need for a constant internet connection.
The M.2 form-factor allows you to add local ML acceleration to products such as embedded platforms, mini-PCs, and industrial gateways that have a compatible M.2 card slot.
