Intel announces OpenVINO - formerly the Open Vision SDK

OpenVINO is a comprehensive toolkit for developing applications and solutions that emulate human vision. Based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), the toolkit extends CV workloads across Intel hardware, maximizing performance. OpenVINO enables CNN-based deep learning inference on the edge; supports heterogeneous execution across computer vision accelerators—CPU, GPU, Intel Movidius Neural Compute Stick, and FPGA—using a common API; and includes optimized calls for OpenCV and OpenVX.
