Installation

Windows Desktop Installer

Download the installer from the link below and run it to install Edge AI Studio on your Windows machine.

  1. Run eaistudio-1.8.0-windows-x64-installer.exe as Administrator.
  2. Accept the license agreement and choose an installation directory.
  3. Wait for all components to install, then click Finish.
  4. Launch Edge AI Studio from the Start Menu or desktop shortcut.
Note — SDK Dependency Checker

The SDK dependency checker will not reflect the v1.8.0 SDK until the corresponding SDK is available on Resource Explorer. In the meantime, you can manually install the required SDK version. To update the dependency checker, edit the rex_dependencies section in <installDir>\model-composer-extensions\tinyml-backend-1.5.0\overrides.json.

Linux Desktop Installer

Download the installer from the link below and run it to install Edge AI Studio on your Linux machine.

  1. Make the installer executable: chmod +x eaistudio-1.8.0-linux-x64-installer.run
  2. Run ./eaistudio-1.8.0-linux-x64-installer.run.
  3. Accept the license agreement and choose an installation directory (defaults to your home directory).
  4. Launch Edge AI Studio from the installation directory or desktop shortcut.
Note — Python Dependency

The Linux installer requires Python 3 with pip already installed on the system. Required Python packages (pandas, numpy) are installed automatically at first run rather than bundled, as they are on Windows.

Cloud Version

No installation is required for the cloud version. Navigate to the link below and sign in with your TI account:

The cloud version provides full data capture, annotation, training, and deployment workflow support directly in your browser.
