Qualcomm today announced the Snapdragon 820E embedded platform, a variant of its former flagship mobile processor meant to power internet-of-things equipment. The Snapdragon 820E is intended for connected computing, or devices that need a network connection and powerful processing at the same time. Qualcomm suggests the Snapdragon 820E would be good for virtual reality applications, digital signage, smart retail, robotics, and more. In addition to the 820E, Qualcomm is offering the DragonBoard 820c development board so developers can design and test their applications and/or inventions ahead of receiving the 820E. Qualcomm says developers will have access to off-the-shelf and custom modules when building their 820E embedded platform. The 820E joins the Snapdragon 410E and 600E as a top-tier offering, compared to the entry-level and mid-range capabilities of the other platforms, respectively. Qualcomm says developers can express interest in the Snapdragon 820E through Arrow Electronics.
