NVIDIA just upgraded their Jetson Nano to a newer version. Now more efficient.
The New Nvidia Jetson Nano B01 that includes an extra MIPI CSI connector and some other changes like, support with NVIDIA Jetson Nano production module.

NVIDIA the giant of graphic cards, had launched a powerful development board last year- The NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit. Obviously the board consisted a dedicated GPU to make it stand out from its competition.
Recently, the company has offered another version of the developer board for sale to the public- The New Nvidia Jetson Nano B01 that includes an extra MIPI CSI connector and some other changes like, support with NVIDIA Jetson Nano production module (with eMMC flash rather than MicroSD card).
The Jetson Nano still packs a Maxwell GPU with 128 centers, yet version 4.3 of its Jetpack software presently underpins TensorRT 6.01 and cuDNN 7.6.3. Software refinements are not by any means the only change however, as the B01 variation likewise incorporates an extra MIPI port for interfacing cameras.
Previously, the Jetson Nano Developer Kit consolidates 4 ARM Cortex-A57 cores that can clock up to 1.43 GHz, alongside 4 GB of RAM. The 100 x 80 x 29 mm board likewise has a microSD card space onboard and four USB 3.0 ports. Then, you can connect the board to outside screens by means of HDMI 2.0 or eDP 1.4 ports. Moreover, the Jetson Nano bolsters Gigabit Ethernet with PoE and has a M.2 opening for connecting a Wi-Fi card. To wrap things up is a 40-pin GPIO header for connecting outside actuators and sensors.

More changes in the new NVIDIA Jetson Nano like the elimination of the "button" and serial headers, and the power select header (J48) has been moved to the edge of the board. The new baseboard is additionally said to be compatible with the up and coming Jetson Xavier NX module, however as indicated by a forum string utilizing an A02 module with a B01 carrier board won't work.
You can get the newer version soon from Robu.in. We will announce its arrival shortly.
