The FPGA-based hardware accelerator VC Power SoM was developed for complex image preprocessing. Results are transferred directly to a processor board. Multiple MIPI-CSI-2 inputs and outputs mean that the accelerator is as easy to integrate as a conventional VC MIPI camera module. OEMs can work with the embedded processor of their choice and use its full computing power for their particular application. The device comprises a completely open FPGA for customer programming and demo applications.
