"The platform will cater to a slew of different functionality, with built-in support for wireless technologies like 4G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, deep learning, video analytics, 4K encoding and various security options, because, as the company put it during a call ahead of the announcement, 'It may sound like and oxymoron, but the most insecure devices in IOT networks tend to be security cameras.'"

A real threat to Ambarella, HiSilicon, etc. These chips are mighty powerful.

Qualcomm has been promoting Snapdragon for cameras overall for about a year, e.g. Qualcomm Wants to Put Snapdragon Chips Into Surveillance Cameras

I wonder what the price is going to be, might be a threat to Ambarella but Hisilicon is so low cost, doubt it's going to have any impact in that segment.

Also, lot of effort to switch platforms (e.g, Ambarella to Qualcomm).
