And now, Intel makes developing computer vision and AI

inference applications for edge and IOT

devices easier than ever with the new Intel Neural Compute

Stick 2.

An affordable USB based development kit

that enables testing, tuning, and prototyping

of deep neural networks directly on devices

without the need of a network or cloud connection.

The Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 is

powered by Intel's advanced VPU featuring 16 SHAVE cores

in a dedicated inference hardware accelerator,

delivering up to eight times the performance

of its predecessor, all while operating at very low power.

And when it's time for deployment,

development done on the Intel Neural Compute Stick 2

can be easily ported to Intel vision product

solutions available from Intel's AI in production partners.

The Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 is

supported by the Intel distribution of the OpenVINO

Toolkit.

A set of software tools for creating and deploying

deep learning inference across various Intel platforms,

enabling a write once - run everywhere approach

on Intel's AI solutions from edge to cloud.

The new Intel Neural Compute Stick 2,

providing developers a quicker path

for bringing a new level of visual intelligence and AI

to the edge.
