    This might be a great board to run Frigate NVR on.

    I recently purchased an Intel N100 mini PC with a Coral TPU. Its performance with Frigate has been fantastic.

    The major difference is the NPU in this RISC-V chip is much more powerful than the Coral TPU. It's NPU has the same TOPS as the latest AI hat for Raspberry Pi 5, but unlike the Raspberry Pi 5, it also has H.264 and H.265 video transcoding. The larger form factor might be a downside, but maybe not if expanded storage or reusing old hardware is a priority.
