This is a single board based around the Myriad X chip, and the CrowdSupply campaign launched on Thursday. I wrote a lot of the copy and created the video. I think it's an awesome product for hobbyists, researchers, and enthusiasts like me. I'm planning on hooking it up to a Pi-powered robot tank body, with the megaAI attached to a tilt/pan servo.

These boards are interesting to me in part because they give us important parts of AI recognition/tracking without the severe problems that cloud processing brings. It makes bespoke and embedded uses so much easier.

I think what HN will be most interested in is that this is from a very small team of highly experienced/skilled people, but we've already made big updates to the software and hardware offerings since the successful campaign for DepthAI last year. All the software is MIT-licensed, and several of our boards are fully open designs you can find on our Github (https://github.com/luxonis/)

Looks very promising
