Along with the Project Alloy VR headset, Intel has also unveiled a new chip module called as Joule that comes with Real Sense depth-sensing camera targeted at Internet of Things (IoT).

Intel says Joule module is a high performance system-on-module (SOM) in a tiny, low-power package which is ideal for computer vision, robotics, drones, industrial IoT, VR, AR, micro-servers and other applications that require high-end edge computing. The Intel Joule module is available in two models – 570x and 550x and supports 4K video and WiFi.
