Day-0 support for Liquid AI's new LFM2.5-230M on CPU + NPU

Today, Liquid AI released their new 230M parameter LLM. In their words, it's "the smallest model yet, built to run anywhere (CPUs, NPUs, and GPUs) to enable agentic applications on phones, robots, home and network automation devices.

"We are excited to showcase day-0 support with roofline's deployment tools.

Agentic home automation sounded exciting, so the demo below features a smart washing machine running a full multimodal workflow: LFM2.5-VL-450M provides visual intelligence, while LFM2.5-230M serves as the orchestration agent controlling the machine.

Both models are fully compiled and run on the CPU and eIQ® Neutron NPU on NXP Semiconductors' i.MX 95, demonstrating how new foundation models can instantly move from release to real-world edge deployments.Congrats to the Liquid AI team on the release!
