In some of these examples the Hexagon DSP one detects it first but with a low confidence, and then the CPU detects it later with a higher confidence than the Hexagon DSP one has yet obtained.

If you were using this for a real purpose, would you only consider it identified at a certain confidence? If you did then the CPU one is surprisingly more performant in some of these examples despite taking longer to get to the object at all.

They appear to be seeing slightly different scenes. I think the phones are next to each other, and this might explain the difference in what they're reporting.

I'd be very interested to know if there's any difference in the processing that should be taken into account however.
