#### [Android Wear 2.0 is here!](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/02/AndroidWear2.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_androidwear2_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)

We recently released the final SDK for Android Wear 2.0. This release has added support for new hardware features, Material Design for Android Wear, Watch Face Complications, and more.

#### [Android Things Developer Preview 2](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/02/android-things-developer-preview-2.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_androidthingspreview_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)

We also released Developer Preview 2 for Android Things bringing new features and bug fixes to the platform. A summary of changes and links to code [are on the post](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/02/android-things-developer-preview-2.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_androidthingspreview_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)…

#### [TensorFlow for Android Things](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/02/android-things-developer-preview-2.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_tensorflowandroidthings_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)

…where you’ll also find a really cool sample that shows how to use TensorFlow on Android Things devices using an early-access TensorFlow inference library prebuilt for ARM and x86. It demonstrates accessing the camera, performing object recognition and image classification, and speaking out the results using text-to-speech.

#### [Announcing TensorFlow Fold](https://research.googleblog.com/2017/02/announcing-tensorflow-fold-deep.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_tensorflowfold_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)

TensorFlow Fold makes it easy to implement deep-learning models that operate over data of varying size and structure. It also brings the benefits of batching to such models, resulting in a speedup of more than 10x on CPU, and more than 100x on GPU, over alternative implementations.

#### [Google Cloud Endpoints now GA](https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2017/02/Google-Cloud-Endpoints-now-GA-a-fast-scalable-API-gateway.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_googlecloudendpoints_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog)

Google Cloud Endpoints is a fast, scalable API gateway and is now generally available. It features a server-local proxy and is built on the same services that Google uses to power its own APIs. [More details and links to get started are on the post](https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2017/02/Google-Cloud-Endpoints-now-GA-a-fast-scalable-API-gateway.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_googlecloudendpoints_021717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog).
