The Intel® Neural Compute Stick 2 (Intel® NCS 2) is Intel’s newest deep learning inference development kit. Packed in an affordable USB-stick form factor, the Intel® NCS 2 is powered by latest VPU (vision processing unit) – the Intel® Movidius™ Myriad X, which includes an on-chip neural network accelerator called the Neural Compute Engine. With 16 SHAVE cores and a dedicated hardware neural network accelerator, the NCS 2 offers up to 8x performance improvement+ over the previous generation.
