Intel
Out for Joule, Galileo and Edison
Intel is discontinuing the developer boards and will only accept orders until September 16, 2017.
It was less than a year ago that Intel presented the Joule board, which is equipped with a particularly economical Atom processor. It is designed in particular to work with the Intel Realsense camera, which can capture objects in 3D using two optical sensors and lasers. Both in terms of computing power and price, the Joule board, at over 400 euros (without Realsense), is aimed more at professional developers. Apparently, the concept has not been well received by developers, because Joule is now over: Intel must receive final orders by September 16, which will then be delivered by December 16.
The same applies to Galileo and Edison. These two boards, equipped with a Quark processor, were announced in 2013 and 2014. Galileo is an Arduino-compatible board to which the Arduino runtime environment has also been ported. However, Galileo could not compete with the Arduino originals in terms of price, so there was little reason for makers to experiment with the Intel platform.
In its product change notifications, Intel states that customers can still order the aforementioned boards until September 16, 2017, but that the quantity of available boards is "limited"
