Here's my try:

The paper presents a design and implementation of tiny machine learning algorithms using novel low power processors to enable prolonged continuous operation in smart glasses. The energy and latency efficient object detection is explored in the case of real-time object detection for this text. A smart glasses prototype with two microcontrollers including an ultra-low milliwatt RISC-V parallel processor with hardware accelerator for visual AI and Bluetooth Low Power module for communication is designed as a research platform. Power cycling mechanisms, image and audio sensing interfaces are integrated. Furthermore, a family of new tiny deep learning models based on YOLO with sub-million parameters customized for microcontroller-based inference dubbed TinyissimoYOLO v1.3, v5, and v8 are developed to benchmark object detection in smart glasses for energy and latency. Evaluations on the prototype demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

The paper also compares several ARM Cortex M4 and M7 microcontrollers from ST Microelectronics, and Ambiq (an ultra-low power MCU using sub-threshold technology), MAX78000 microcontroller from Analog Devices, and RISC-V based SiFive HiFive Unleashed board with a 64-bit quad-core processor. The results show that the RISC-V processor outperforms other processors in terms of energy efficiency and latency for object detection in smart glasses.
