The EdgeFirst Model Zoo is a multi-platform, multi-model collection of production-ready vision models with full profiling and validation results for every published artifact. Each model is trained, exported, quantized, and compiled in EdgeFirst Studio, then validated on the actual deployment hardware — accuracy and timing are measured by the same pipeline that runs the deployed model, never a separate benchmark configuration.
On-target measurement is performed by the
EdgeFirst Profiler:
it runs full inference on the device through each runtime's native delegate, captures per-image
predictions as Parquet (inference results) and a Perfetto trace (.pftrace, detailed
per-stage timing), and ships both to EdgeFirst Studio for processing and publishing. Every
accuracy or timing number on this page links back to a public Studio validation session you can
inspect yourself. The Profiler is built on our open-source stack, including the
EdgeFirst HAL —

The EdgeFirst Perception Index (EFPI) is a comprehensive technical report covering how we collected these benchmarks and validation results, how the models were optimized for each platform, and our insights and analysis of the results across the embedded hardware landscape.

Each point is a public validation session: color = platform, shape = model family (● YOLOv5 · ■ YOLOv8 · ▲ YOLO11 · ◆ YOLO26). X axis is sustained pipelined throughput on a log scale — the full image load → decode → preprocess → inference → postprocess pipeline, not bare inference time. ⚠ flagged sessions are shown at their measured accuracy.
On-target latency results are being collected across the platform matrix. See the EdgeFirst Profiler documentation for how profiling and validation are performed.
⚠ Model accuracy on this platform is below our expectations — we are investigating the results to make improvements.
Additional model families and platforms are added to the zoo as their on-target validation completes.

Throughput is the measured pipelined rate — stages overlap across frames, so it exceeds 1000 ÷ end-to-end latency. Measured by the EdgeFirst Profiler.
Ranked by COCO val2017 mAP@0.5-0.95 as measured on each platform by the EdgeFirst Profiler. Each entry links to its public validation session on EdgeFirst Studio.
