Very interesting to see that it has a built-in NPU. Such co-processors are increasingly being included in recent high-end mobile phone platforms, used mostly to accelerate image processing algorithms.
Seems like this is a sign of things to come in Windows platforms too, since Microsoft are including an NPU in this devkit. The PC of the future may well end up being CPU+GPU+NPU as standard, much as it is CPU+GPU today.

Currently Microsoft relies on a partner ecosystem for compute in these, but given the push into more features built around real-time image processing, dealing with multiple cameras, multiple audio channels and other latency sensitive workloads this seems like a perfect platform to distribute that.
