Xilinx Kria SoM is best suited for “edge based ML acceleration” as it have the UltraScale+ FPGA fabric (Programmable Logic-PL), ARM APU, RPU and video encoding/decoding (VCU) hard block. Kria SoM can fit the higher range of Xilinx Deep Learning Processing Unit (DPU) IP in the FPGA logic or Fabric. DPU can run or accelerate one or multiple CNN type of Neural Network (NN) inside it, NN accelerated inside DPU can give high performance interms of FPS , Throughput and Cost Per Stream (CPS). For running or accelerating any GPU trained model into DPU , the model have to converge/convert by doing Pruning, Quantization and Compilation as mentioned by Vitis AI flow or as example detailed by Vitis AI tutorials!
Xilinx has released KV260 development board or starter kit which is based on Kria SoM. KV260 has the MIPI, Ethernet , USB, DP, HDMI, like interfaces for taking input and sending output for external devices.

Xilinx also has released easy to run “Machine Learning Application” for KV260, these Application can be found at: https://xilinx.github.io/kria-apps-docs/main/build/html/index.html
The Xilinx Kria Apps have following applications:
- SmartCam Application: For FaceDetect, Person Detect and Vehicle Detect
- AIBox ReID: For detection and re-identification for objects, person etc
- Defect Detection: For finding the defect on fruits and vegetables
- NLP-SmartVision: For audio keyword based Machine Learning Model switching
What LogicTronix have did on Kria SoM – KV260
