Luxonis DepthAI OAK-D (LUX-D)

The Luxonis DepthAI Boards combine stereo and RGB cameras with the Intel® Movidius™ Myriad™ X platform. This results in a small board that can be operated either stand-alone or with an additional device, such as an NVIDIA Xavier Jetson, Raspberry Pi, or many others. Due to the highly performant Intel uC with a base clock of 700 MHz, this small and compact development board can compute approximately 4.5 million possibilities in under a second.

What is the concept behind the Luxonis Boards?

The manufacturer aims to create a versatile platform with an extremely small form factor, based on which anyone can execute a basic script in under 30 seconds. The development platforms are available in various configurations, such as with Wi-Fi or a Raspberry Pi Compute Module. If the initial tests are promising, Luxonis also offers bare PCBs that can be integrated as OEM into a third-party component.

What is DepthAI?

Each Luxonis development board comes with the so-called DepthAI firmware, which inherently includes the following functionalities:

• Neural inference (e.g., object detection, image classification, etc., including two-stage)
• Stereo depth (including median filtering)
• 3D object localization (supplementing 2D object detectors with 3D position in meters)
• Object tracking (also in 3D space)
• H.264 and H.265 encoding (HEVC, 1080p & 4K video)
• JPEG encoding
• MJPEG encoding
• Warp/Unwarp
