Visual Processing in Rugged Environments
Complex visual processing is becoming an important part of rugged industrial applications. Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) of manufacturing lines, Infrared Thermography (IRT) in oil refineries, and traffic safety enforcement are some examples of the ways image and video processing improve quality, efficiency, and safety. However, visual computing in rugged environments has its challenges. Most applications are resource-intensive and include extensive 2D and 3D graphics processing. Tough environmental conditions require fanless designs that limit power and present thermal dissipation challenges. Customers are also pushing for smaller sizes and lower costs.
Improved Graphics Performance Changes the Cost Equation in Digital Signage
The quality and flexibility of digital signage is a function of the graphics processing capability of the media players that drive the displays. To deliver a high level of graphics performance, media players tend to incorporate discrete graphics processing units, although some players use the graphics engine on the CPU platform. Discover how 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ processors provide retailers improved graphics performance and anonymous video analytics to deliver audience messaging at lower cost and watt.
Adding Video Analytics to Analog Surveillance
Video surveillance today is in the midst of a paradigm shift. Gone are the days of security staff watching fuzzy images on closed circuit TV (CCTV). Instead, high-resolution Internet protocol (IP) cameras are improving video quality and enabling new applications like video content analytics. And with hybrid NVR, users’ will be able to preserve their investment in analog cameras by being able to receive, process and record signals from both analog and newer IP cameras.
Applying “Sandy Bridge” to Embedded Applications
Market demand continues to grow for high-performance imaging, communications and security systems. Solutions need to contain scalable power-efficient processors with better integrated graphics capabilities than ever before. From imaging to communications to security to raw scalar throughput, the second generation Intel® Core™ processors (formerly codenamed Sandy Bridge) combining with C206, Q67 and QM67 chipsets offer either a simple, power-efficient upgrade or a massive architectural simplification.
Best Practice Development Processes for Medical Device FPGAs
For FPGA developers working on designs for medical devices, one approach to dealing with regulatory uncertainty is to borrow heavily from design assurance processes in other safety-critical industries, such as avionics, where standards are well established. These well-established standards mandate a development flow that is controlled, auditable and perhaps most important, specific to the requirements of hardware engineering. While following such a flow will not guarantee smooth sailing though every regulatory approval process for FPGA devices bound for medical applications, it is consistent with basic regulatory intent - to demonstrate to auditors that complex devices meet their requirements and perform well under all foreseeable conditions.
