In the same way "embedded" is relative, I appreciate the author's recognition that "edge" is relative. For some, AI at the edge means on-prem server farms. For some it means a mini-pc. For others, maybe an SBC. Here it's a microcontroller. Further still is AI within the sensors a microcontroller would talk to. That's probably just another microcontroller but still.

I don't understand why we need a separate "lite" format for microcontrollers.

Wouldn't it be advantageous if we used ONNX for everything? https://onnx.ai/

batuhandumani•24m ago
tf-lite micro library has many advantages, and the first of these is the tensorFlow framework itself. You can train the model easily and then implement the same or a similar architecture on esp-32s without much effort. Another advantage is its optimization and you can easily intervene in various memory optimizations and even though it is not a large one, it does have a community.

Apart from these, for example, the author implemented the model the traditional way using C, but it is more convenient to use tf-lite micro on esp32s with the Berry script language.

However, since I have never used onnxin this kind of project, I cant speak to its advantages, so comparisons are difficult from my perspective. But as I said, tf-lite and offer benefits like easy integration, good optimization, and as the name implies, tensorFlow.
