Toshiba introduced processors for image recognition Visconti 3


Toshiba has introduced a series of processors Visconti 3, designed for image recognition. The first product of the new line, TMPV7528XBG, distinguished by the number of integrated cores, which, according to the manufacturer, greatly expands the range of possible applications in the industry. Recall Toshiba Visconti two processors were introduced in October 2011. Visconti three processors differ from their predecessors advanced functionality, enhanced performance and great potential for the development of software.
Visconti processors were designed for automotive automatic tracking
Visconti series was originally created for use in auto-tracking in the automotive industry. Devices that are based on these processors are able to recognize the lane on the road, cars, pedestrians, traffic lights and many other elements of the environment. Visconti processors 2 and 3 contain the Visconti embedded image processing accelerators, enabling them in real time to detect pedestrians with a high degree of reliability.
An important feature of Visconti 3, which is to simplify the software development is the availability of 32-bit dual-core processor ARM Cortex-A9, the main purpose of which - running applications that interact with an image recognition.
Releasing three Visconti, Toshiba plans to expand its business in the field of image recognition and to move from car-making to create machine vision systems for industrial applications. In 2015 fiscal year, the manufacturer expects to sell 2 million processors Visconti. The first shipment of Visconti 3 will begin in April.
