 I have both the google AIY and the movidius stick. I am working on getting them to play nicely with each other.

 I've been waiting for an eval kit like this since CES in January, when Dave Ackley and I saw a cool demo using the neural net based Movidius VPU - albeit that one was packaged as a USB compute stick.  This version runs on a bonnet for Raspberry Pi Zero W:

The VisionBonnet circuit board has an Intel Movidius MA2450 low-power vision processing unit, which can run neural network models right on the device. You'll get software, too, which has three TensorFlow-based neural network models: one to recognize a thousand common objects, another that can recognize faces and expressions and a third that can detect people, cats and dogs.

Oh yeah.

I suppose, if we wanted to bring the award winning / beer finding SmartCamBot back to life with one of these, we'd have to train it to recognize bottles versus crayons, but that's a small price to pay for real-time / local image processing at this level...
Who else is in?
