ArduPilot with ARM? IMU in one chip: MPU-9150

It was an issues of time to build a 9-axis sensor in one chip, and Invense did it again.

I read somewhere that people are working to build an Ardupilot with ARM CPU, so i'm thinking in image or video processing in a platform similar to Raspberry-PI, but this consumes 2.5W in Model A.
