The power packed Intel Joule
Intel is no stranger to the development kit market – the SD card-sized Edison (833-0891) is a prime example - but with the Joule, Intel is aiming squarely at a different crowd of developers.
The first major clue is in the price - on most sites the Intel Joule 570X (125-9541) is about 10x the price of everyone’s favourite dev kit benchmark, the Raspberry Pi 3 (896-8660).
So why would you pay that much more for the Joule? The short answer is compact processing power. The tiny System on a Module (SOM) is only 24x48mm but packs some impressive features, such as 4K video capture and display with support for Intel RealSense technology. This allows the device to capture Depth Of Field (DOF) information, giving an application spatial awareness of its environment and any objects within that environment. It’s easy to imagine how useful that would be for:
- Autonomous vehicles, drones and robotics
- Driver-assist applications for the automotive industry
- Augmented and virtual reality
- Industrial IoT
