Video processor performs smart analytics

7 July 2010 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

Offering a megapixel IP camera system-on-chip (SoC) equipped with smart analytics, Texas Instruments has introduced the DaVinci DMVA2 video processor. Video surveillance and security customers can utilise integrated smart analytics that run on TI’s first generation vision co-processor incorporated on the DMVA2 SoC. People counting, trip zone, intelligent motion detection, camera tamper detection and streaming metadata analytics are all possible while streaming up to 1080p.

Following the recently introduced DMVA1 video processor which supports up to 720p, the DMVA2 SoC offers three times the video performance over the DMVA1 video processor and is equipped with TI’s Smart Codec technology, which provides up to five times the bit rate reduction for improved video quality and network bandwidth. The DMVA2 is also both pin and software compatible with the DMVA1, DM365 and DM368 DaVinci video processors. In addition to the chip itself, customers can accelerate their time-to-market with a complete IP camera reference design and free Linux IP camera application software with source code.

The DMVA2’s ARM926EJ-STM core provides more than 40% host processor performance over the DMVA1. The chip provides support for H.264 in high, main or base profiles 720p at 30 fps or 1080p at 15 fps, plus secondary CIF stream. Multicodec support (MPEG-4, MPEG-2 MJPEG and VC1) enables up to two-megapixel IP camera designs. TI’s on-chip, fifth generation ISP solution allows for video stabilisation, face detection, face recognition, noise filtering, auto white balance, auto focus, auto exposure and edge enhancement, as well as other video quality enhancements.
