## OwLite 2.5.0 Update (16 May 2025)

Hello from the **OwLite** team! 🎉

Today we’re thrilled to announce **QNN (Qualcomm® Neural Network) output** support, bringing hardware‑accelerated inference and deep profiling to Snapdragon™ & Qualcomm IoT devices — all straight from your familiar OwLite workflow.

**Export Directly to QNN**

* QNN is Qualcomm’s cross-platform neural-network runtime and graph format that converts trained models into hardware-optimized executables and dynamically schedules them across Snapdragon CPU, Adreno GPU, Hexagon DSP, and NPU cores for ultra-low-latency, battery-efficient on-device AI.
* QNN automatically routes each layer to the fastest engine available (CPU, Adreno GPU, Hexagon DSP, NPU) for lower latency and longer battery life.
* Keep working with OwLite’s model visualization and detailed compression setting for the best accuracy‑vs‑speed trade‑off.

**Getting Started (Cloud Plan)**

1. **Upgrade to OwLite Cloud Plan** (`Settings → Subscription`).
2. **Install QNN Runner** and issue a **Device Key** — be sure to pick **Target Framework = QNN** during issuance.
3. With `owlite device connect`, connect with OwLite Runner synced with Qualcomm AI Hub .
4. **Join Qualcomm AI Hub**, copy your **API Token**, and paste it into **Account → API Tokens**.

6. In code, call `owlite.init(device="SA8775P ADP")` (or another device string from the list below).
7. Open your OwLite project(framework = QNN) and configure your compression configuration.
8. Once you are done, build and benchmark your experiment with OwLite.
