Intel has introduced Intel's Neural Compute Stick 2, which is designed to build smarter AI algorithms and to bring the computer to the edge of the network.
The Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 is based on the Intel Movidius Myriad X processing unit and is supported by the Intel Distribution of OpenVINO tool.
"The first-generation Intel Neural Compute Stick has caused a whole community of AI developers in action with a factor and price that did not exist before," said Naveen Rao, Intel's vice president and general manager of the AI Products Group.
"We are excited to see what the community is creating with strong improvement to calculate the power that is powered by the new Intel Neural Compute Stick 2."
For developers working on a smart camera, a drone, an industrial robot or a smart home appliance, the Intel NCS 2 delivers what's needed for a prototype faster and smarter, according to Intel.
The Intel NCS 2 runs on a standard USB 3.0 port and does not require additional hardware, allowing users to convert perfectly and then develop computer-trained models across a wide range of devices, no dial-up or cloud connections.
