Jetson GPU Usage

We've bought a Jetson TX1 board to do our vision work this year and I had a question on its benefits. We're not actually using the GPU module because we're not using any of the vision algorithms that it can accelerate. Given this, is there a benefit of doing vision on the Jetson over a cheaper board like the RPI3?

Re: Jetson GPU Usage

Well the CPU is a bit more powerful than the rPi 3's, but that's about it. Comparing the jetson to an Odroid XU4 or C2 if you're not using GPU, the XU4 or C2 wins generally.

I highly doubt that. Thresholds, desaturates, and blurs are very common operations that can be GPU accelerated.
