[* black] There's a lot to unravel here. Let's start with some specs ... err, specifications: | |
[* red] Nvidia Tegra X2 (Parker) SoC with two Denver 2.0 64-bit cores and four ARM Cortex A57 64-bit cores | |
[* orange] Integrated Pascal-based GPU with 256 CUDA cores | |
[* yellow] 8 GB LPDDR4 with ECC | |
[* green] 128 GB onboard storage | |
[* light_blue] Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi 802.11ac/b/g/n, USB-C, 3.5 mm headphone jack | |

This seems like off-label use, until you consider the Magic Leap's multiple arrays of external sensors for mapping and understanding its environment—not at all dissimilar to what self-driving vehicles are tasked with every day. |
