Helpful thread, thanks: Google support team churn after the distribution transition to Asus IoT, Frigate devs were preparing to fork Google repos, then new Google devs appeared.
> Google is getting back on top of things aka coral support which is nice.. it seems that the original devs weren't on the project and new devs needed to be given notice. Hopefully this continues and things are kept up to date.. updated libcoral and pycoral libraries are coming as well.
It's good that Frigate brought attention to languishing Linux maintenance for Coral. Rockchip 3588 and other Arm SoCs have NPUs, which will likely be supported in time, but each SoC will require validation. Coral Edge TPUs were a convenient single target that worked with any x86 and Arm board, via USB or M.2 slot.
