## DepthAI API

DepthAI API ([Python](https://github.com/luxonis/depthai-python), [C++](https://github.com/luxonis/depthai-core)) allows users to
develop and deploy vision pipelines that run on the accelerated hardware blocks on our devices.

### DepthAI Components

 * [Nodes](https://docs.luxonis.com/software/depthai-components/nodes.md) represent a sensor, accelerated hardware, or some
   compute function
 * [Pipeline](https://docs.luxonis.com/software/depthai-components/pipeline.md) consists of linked nodes and gets deployed to the
   device where it runs on accelerated hardware blocks
 * [Messages](https://docs.luxonis.com/software/depthai-components/messages.md) are used for communication between nodes. They
   hold data and metadata
 * [Device](https://docs.luxonis.com/software/depthai-components/device.md) represents Luxonis' device, either an OAK camera or a
   RAE. It handles connectivity and communication
 * [Bootloader](https://docs.luxonis.com/software/depthai-components/bootloader.md) handles logic when booting the device and
   makes device accessible for connection
