In their press release, Intrinsyc mentions the DragonBoard 8074 kit will support Android 4.2, and Open-Q 8074 Android or Linux. That does not make any sense, as I understand DragonBoard 8074 is based on Open-Q 8074, unless it simply means DragonBoard 8074 kit comes pre-loaded with Android 4.2, or Linux does not fully support the peripherals on the carrier board.

Beside the carrier board and SoM, the kit includes a power supply, a Quick Start Guide / License Agreement, access to documentation and platform BSP, as well as the optional peripheral kits for camera and sensors.

The DragonBoard 8074 is available now for $499 on Intrinsyc Store. Bear in mind this is currently an early adapter release, which according to the company means “Binaries, documentation, BSP source code and support are NOT available”, and general availability will be in mid-July. The QSeven SoM does not appear to be available in their store, but an earlier version with Qualcomm APQ8060A costs $249 per piece (MOQ: 10). Further information is available on DragonBoard 8074 page.

The platform will be demonstrated at the Wearable Tech Conference (New York City, July 24-25) and Qualcomm’s Uplinq 2013 wireless ecosystem conference (San Diego, September 3-5).
