OpenVINO toolkit (Open Visual Inference and Neural network Optimization) is a free toolkit facilitating the optimization of a deep learning model from a framework and deployment using an inference engine onto Intel hardware. The toolkit has two versions: OpenVINO toolkit, which is supported by open source community and Intel Distribution of OpenVINO toolkit, which is supported by Intel. OpenVINO was developed by Intel. The toolkit is cross-platform and free for use under Apache License version 2.0. The toolkit enables a write-once, deploy-anywhere approach to deep learning deployments on Intel platforms, including CPU, integrated GPU, Intel Movidius VPU, and FPGAs.
OpenVINO™ is an open-source toolkit for optimizing and deploying AI inference.
- Boost deep learning performance in computer vision, automatic speech recognition, natural language processing and other common tasks
- Use models trained with popular frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch and more
- Reduce resource demands and efficiently deploy on a range of Intel® platforms from edge to cloud
