3
+ *On-device multimodal embedding model enabling instant, private NPU-powered visual search.*
4
+
5
+ ## Model Description
6
+
7
+ **EmbedNeural** is the world’s first multimodal embedding model purpose-built for **Qualcomm Hexagon NPU** devices. It enables **instant, private, battery-efficient** natural-language image search directly on laptops, phones, XR, and edge devices — with no cloud and no uploads.
8
+
9
+ The model continuously indexes local images using NPU acceleration, turning unorganized photo folders into a fully searchable visual database that runs entirely on-device.

12
+
13
+ ## Key Features
14
+
15
+ ### ⚡ NPU-accelerated multimodal embeddings
16
+ Optimized for Qualcomm NPUs to deliver sub-second search and dramatically lower power consumption.
17
+
18
+ ### 🔍 Natural-language visual search
19
+ Query thousands of images instantly using everyday language (e.g., “green bedroom aesthetic”, “cat wearing sunglasses”).
20
+
21
+ ### 🔒 100% local and private
22
+ All computation stays on-device. No cloud. No upload. No tracking.
23
+
24
+ ### 🔋 Ultra-low power
25
+ Continuous background indexing uses ~10× less power than CPU/GPU methods, enabling true always-on search.
26
+

29
+ ## Why It Matters
30
+
31
+ People save thousands of images — memes, screenshots, design inspo, photos — but struggle to find them when needed. Cloud solutions compromise privacy; CPU/GPU search drains battery.
32
+
33
+ EmbedNeural removes these tradeoffs by combining:
34
+ - **Instant retrieval** (~0.03s across thousands of images)
35
+ - **Continuous local indexing**
36
+ - **Zero data upload**
37
+ - **NPU-optimized efficiency for daily use**
38
+
39
+ This makes visual search something you can actually use **every day**, not just when plugged in.
40
+
41
+ ---
42
+
43
+ ## Use Cases
44
+
45
+ - **Personal image libraries:** Rediscover memes, screenshots, and old photos instantly.
46
+ - **Creative workflows:** Search moodboards and visual references with natural language.
47
+ - **Edge & embedded systems:** Efficient multimodal search for mobile, XR, IoT, and automotive.
48
+

50
+
51
+ ## Performance Highlights
52
+
53
+ - Sub-second search even across large image libraries
54
+ - ~10× lower power consumption vs CPU/GPU search
55
+ - Stable always-on indexing without thermal or battery issues
