Google® Coral Dev Board Demo Built with i.MX 8M Applications Processor

Very often small deviations in individual glass geometry can disturb handling processes in the production line. To overcome these disturbances, a digital shadow model of every windshield is created at the Edge and upload it to AWS Cloud. The demo leverages NXP’s i.MX8M application processors as edge devices, running AWS Greengrass on top.
