From the documentation (https://movidius.github.io/ncsdk/ncapi/ncapi2/py_api/FifoDataType.html) it says that only 16 and 32 bit floats are supported and that 32 bit floats are converted down to 16 bits. So is 16 bit floating point precision the only supported data representation and are there plans/ability to support anything else in the future?

@mail929 You are correct with the above statements. At the moment, there are no plans to support any data types outside of FP16.
