Nvidia's $99 Jetson Nano Is an AI Computer for DIY Enthusiasts

Hope it'll ship with better support that the first Jetson. The one they marketed with all that AI/Machine Vision stuff and then shipped without a camera driver.

This is just following Google's Edge TPU, which probably competes with a Raspberry Pi + Movidius stick. The market there is getting interesting.

The product link in the article leads to an ironic 404 message: "Even AI can't find this page!" https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/autonomous-machines/embedded-sy...

I ordered a Coral USB accelerated (Edge TPU on a USB) to tinker with for the novelty and it just arrived this afternoon. I will say one giant gap between these two is Google's Edge TPU based products only support TensorFlow Lite.

I wish these tiny SBCs came with SATA or m.2 so I could hook up an SSD. I know microSD is catching up, but it's not there yet.

Now I just need something to DIY with it. Any ideas?

self driving small car, nerf turret that shoots anyone who is not you, following drone, cat stalking drone, cat stalking self driving "rc" car, auto bird identification camera in your backyard "this is a bird of type X" with voice or screen with instance detection/segmentation

This has an M.2 Key E connector which has PCIe ×2, USB 2.0, I2C, SDIO, UART and PCM. Hypothetically an M.2 PCIe drive could work with a Key M to Key E adapter, but I couldn't find one in a cursory search.

what gear would one best use to make those gadgets self-recharging?

one the non-charging idea side there would be the AI network traffic analyzer (just requires another 1G connector via USB)
