The Geta Box

GETA is not just a device, it's an entire ecosystem! It is a distributed computing platform that uses open-source technologies to create an extremely powerful sandbox within which YOU can imagine, innovate and create next-generation experiences. From wearable computing devices to augmented reality, YOU are the stimulus to help define how we will use computers in the future and how every-day devices can be connected to create compelling new apps that can transform our lives. We give you all the tools to be your own imagineer and develop and share your own vision of the future. The GETA Box is a mobile self-contained, networkable supercomputer in the palm of your hands with complete graphics, multimedia, compute, communications and interaction capability. It can compute at a rate >10 teraflops and handle natural user interfaces such as speech, vision, touch, gestures and handwriting while displaying information using audio, video and 3d graphics in augmented reality settings. It also has out-of-box automatic distributed processing capability for applications like compute farms, bitcoin mining, scientific and technical computing, industrial and embedded computing, home entertainment and gaming, automotive and military/aerospace applications. It is supported by a Real-Time Linux based software platform called Tapestry.
It has interfaces that allow it to be embedded into virtually any compute environment. Indeed it is a compute “black-box” with enormous compute power all while consuming < 35 watts! The system will run the Tapestry OS, based on a real-time multiprocessor Linux kernel that will service the chips in a homogeneous way. An Augmented Reality OS called Looking Glass will sit atop Tapestry.
