The Jetson TK1 is a Compute(GPGPU) solution from Nvidia with a sub 10 Watt power usage.
The compute power is 300 GFLOPS. This kind of compute power is more than the Xbox 360 and ps3. In technical terms the Jetson TK1 is a supercomputer which uses Ubuntu 14.04(with nvidia modules for the TK1) out of the box. It uses an NVIDIA kepler chipset with 192 CUDA cores. In other words flagship and enthusiast parts of less than 8 years ago gets dwarfed in performance by this SOC, all possible by linux and the open nature of its kernel.
