## Long description

QNAP QAI-U100 is an AI accelerator card built around a Rockchip RK1808 processor running at 1.6 GHz and an integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) delivering up to 3 TOPS. The card is designed to offload neural network inference workloads from host CPUs, enabling faster computer vision, analytics, and edge AI processing when installed in compatible QNAP systems. It supports common inference tasks and is intended to improve real-time responsiveness while keeping system CPU usage low.
Advantages
The QAI-U100 provides dedicated hardware acceleration for neural network inference, reducing latency for vision and analytics applications. Its low-power NPU enables efficient edge deployment while minimizing thermal and power impact compared with using only the host CPU. Integration with compatible QNAP platforms simplifies deployment and management, offering a compact solution for accelerating AI-driven services without major system redesign.
Suitable for
Edge computer vision and camera analytics
Real-time inference for monitoring and detection systems
Accelerating analytics workloads on compatible QNAP servers
Deployments requiring low-latency inferencing with limited power budget
Key specifications
Processor: Rockchip RK1808 at 1.6 GHz
