Luxonis - OAK-1

Luxonis OAK-1 isn’t a standard USB camera. It’s a 4-trillion-operations-per-second AI powerhouse that performs your AI models on-board, so that your host is free to do whatever you need it to do.

Its integrated 12 MegaPixel camera module communicates over an on-board 2.1 Gbps MIPI interface directly to the Myriad X, which ingests this data and performs neural inference on it, returning the results over USB.

Such a data path offloads the host processor from all of this work. In the common use case of object detection from a 12MP image, this means your host is now dealing with a 24 Kbps stream of what the objects are and where they are in the image, instead of a 2.1 Gbps stream of video. So an 87,500 reduction in data your host has to deal with.

And such a reduction means that even on relatively-slow hosts, one can use dozens of OAK-1 without burdening the host CPU.

VPU POWER IN YOUR PRODUCT

Hardware H.265, 12MP Color Camera and 4 TOPS AI

The Luxonis megaAI brings the full power of the Myriad X into your product.

Unlike other AI processors, the Luxonis megaAI is a complete solution including integrated 12MP camera capable of 60FPS 4K video and 4 trillion operations of Computer Vision + AI processing.

Luxonis megaAI can be used with hosts USB2 and USB3 (Gen1; 5gbps and Gen2: 10gbps), with communication via our open-source host API (https://github.com/luxonis/depthai).

When used with a host, megaAI offloads all computer vision and AI workloads from the host, allowing the host to be free to run its own business logic.

The direct MIPI connection from the onboard 12 MegaPixel cameras allows the use of hardware blocks, offloading complex computer vision and AI tasks directly to the 4 trillion-operations-per-second (TOPS) power of megaAI, including:

OAK-1 + Raspberry Pi: 50+FPS, 0% RPi CPU Utilization

NCS2 + Raspberry Pi: 8FPS, 225% CPU Utilization

Note: This was previously referred to as the 'MEGAAI-KIT' and the 'LUX-1'
