Why this project?

More about the platform

Embedding AI processing capability in intelligent systems and devices is a megatrend that signals a major transformation of the digital world.

Embedded AI offers solutions for processing data as closely as possible to the data source, which has a number of innate advantages: faster processing, reduced data transmission, and higher levels of data confidentiality and security.

More about the platform

Given the significant increase in embedded computation, it is vital that France and the wider Europe have direct access to the powerful tools needed to optimise and deploy embedded AI.
These sovereign technologies are essential if we are to retain our independence, compete at a higher level and ensure that our solutions comply fully with our standards and regulations.

Our ambition: to make embedded AI a major strength of France and the wider Europe.

More about the platform

The cutting-edge expertise of France in AI and integrated circuits gives us a strong base from which to innovate and position ourselves decisively in the global market for embedded AI.

The DeepGreen mission is to bring leading French partners from research and industry together with hardware solutions vendors and intelligent systems development companies for the purpose of developing a dedicated embedded AI software platform.

The ultimate aim of this platform is to offer reliable and powerful solutions for deploying low-energy, low-memory embedded AI applications that meet not only the needs of industry, but also the imperatives of the environment. Available to all parts of the French and European industrial ecosystem, the platform will also improve the sovereignty and competitiveness of companies operating in the strategic embedded AI sector.

Our challenges

The goal of DeepGreen is to bring together a group of national stakeholders to create and share a software platform dedicated to the design and large-scale deployment of embedded AI applications offering innovative and value-creating functions in response to the following strategic challenges:

Sovereignty

Providing control over the end-to-end deployment of embedded AI and promoting French and European hardware technologies.

Competitiveness

Accelerating the rollout of embedded AI applications by giving all French and European R&D stakeholders access to the best-possible development tools.

Frugality

Developing advanced model optimisation techniques to reduce memory footprint and energy consumption.

Reliability

Developing robust and explainable approaches alongside methods for evaluating and qualifying the critical functions required to deliver the performance expected of embedded AI.
