Luxonis announced the launch of its OAK 4 devices - a groundbreaking, fully self-contained computer vision camera system that achieves 52 TOPS of AI inference compute all on device (40X the previous generation).

Luxonis is a vertically integrated edge hardware + cloud platform that enables machines to perceive the world. Its spatial AI 'OAK' cameras are used globally in robotics and automation across industrial equipment, smart cities, manufacturing, retail, and logistics. With OAK 4, AI workloads run fully on-device and can be managed remotely with no additional hardware — reducing server compute costs and eliminating the need to stream video to the cloud.

“After years of sustained engineering investment, OAK 4 represents the most advanced generation of our edge-AI platform to date. Direct feedback from field deployments has been clear: they need higher-throughput edge compute, expanded multimodal sensing, higher-resolution imaging pipelines, and rugged hardware. OAK 4 delivers on all fronts, integrating next-generation AI acceleration, a richer sensor stack, and improved environmental durability.” - Bradley Dillon, CEO Luxonis

“The launch of OAK 4 and Luxonis Hub marks a pivotal moment for edge AI in robotics and advanced driver-assistance systems. By combining rugged, high-performance hardware with a unified cloud platform, Luxonis is addressing one of the biggest challenges in deploying AI at scale: maintaining accuracy and adaptability in real-world environments,” stated Anshuman Saxena, VP & GM, ADAS & Robotics, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “This innovation empowers developers and enterprises to build smarter, more resilient systems that can perceive and act with unprecedented precision.”

OAK 4: Industry-leading compute, sensor fusion, and durability

The OAK 4 lineup includes four new OAK devices, each integrating a Qualcomm® QCS8550 processor, a versatile, heterogeneous onboard processor that integrates a powerful ISP, GPU, and NSPU, running Yocto Linux OS. This positions OAK as the industry’s most advanced spatial-AI sensors that run completely standalone, requiring no external host system or cloud compute. With 52 TOPS (a 40x improvement) of AI inferencing capacity, they can run multiple computer-vision models at high frame rates, including their proprietary Neural Stereo Depth estimation models.

OAK 4 incorporates patent-pending Dynamic Calibration to maintain precise stereo depth performance even as environmental conditions change in the field. Depending on the device, OAK 4 includes a stereo depth camera pair, a 48-megapixel RGB camera, an IR dot projector, an IR illumination LED, a 9-axis IMU, a microphone, and a wide FOV perfect for navigation. All components are housed within an IP67-rated industrial chassis engineered for shock, vibration, and harsh environmental conditions. Each unit is powered via USB or PoE, along with an M8 connector for IO connectivity.

Luxonis Hub: Unifying Hardware and Software

Luxonis is also launching Hub, a cloud-based platform that enables Luxonis hardware to become a complete computer vision platform. Hub enables simple deployment, over-the-air updates, and device monitoring. Model drift is a primary reason why edge AI fails at scale; Hub addresses this with 'Snaps' by intelligently collecting data on the edge and using it to improve AI models. By connecting standalone hardware with intuitive cloud software, a workflow that once required specialized engineering teams can now be completed in just 5 minutes, with limited technical experience required.

Applications

With over 4.5 million SDK downloads, the Luxonis platform has proven its versatility from AMRs to IoT sensors. The SDK abstracts away the hardest parts of computer-vision engineering – sensor control, stereo depth, neural inference, and hardware acceleration – and packages them into simple, composable APIs. Developers get reliable, real-time vision pipelines out of the box, with the flexibility to customize or scale as needed.

Pricing and Availability

OAK 4 devices are available now with retail prices starting at $749 for the OAK 4 S, $849 for the OAK 4 D, and $949 for the OAK 4 D Pro. The OAK 4 CS starts at $899 and is currently available via Early Access with dates aimed at early 2026. Luxonis Hub offers tiered plans with a free developer option (no card required).
