You are probably right, they are using the Matrice 100 as a test bed, then trying it out in the consumer world on the P4 first.
Very wide angle cameras do not work well in obstacle avoidance, all the wide angle does is severely reduce the distance from the aircraft that the obstacle is detected. Even a 90 degree FOV is too wide to work well.
As for NVidia, Intel and AMD, hmm. Firstly NVidia are so flaky with their graphics gear I would not trust anything they did. Intel are working on the one for the Yuneec, and AMD, well they will make a chip no doubt, but the truth is with modern FPGAs, it is not hard for anyone to come up with their own system.
My bet is that DJI will be there before any of them because they already have a wealth of experience in this area and are probably ahead of the pack. |
