Products and Services
- Video Conferencing: Visidon¡¯s depth estimation and bokeh effect are used in video conferencing devices, televisions, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Visidon bokeh solution provides a high-quality gradual blur effect simulating a real DSLR camera aperture effect, unlike typically used binary blurring masks. Our technology can support both stereo and mono camera setups for delivering a top-class video conferencing experience. Algorithms have been optimized for Synopsys ARC? EV architectures offering real-time processing of 4K video.
- Video Enhancement: Visidon video enhancement technology enables high-quality de-noise and super-resolution for videos. It can be used for real-time camera streams in various use-cases and in addition to process encoded video streams at the edge. Technologies have been optimized for Synopsys ARC processors utilizing neural network accelerator and DSP.
- Driver Monitoring System (DMS): Visidon¡¯s DMS solutions are built on the Synopsys ARC EV7/6x processors. DMS software offers an automatic, unobtrusive, accurate, and reliable way to observe the distraction and drowsiness of drivers improving safety in today¡¯s vehicles. Visidon technologies track the driver¡¯s behavior with the camera and detect if his attention is distracted or getting too sleepy to drive safely. Visidon¡¯s DMS will also be available on the Synopsys ARC NPX and NPX FS Neural Processing Unit (NPU) IP.
ARC-specific Support Details
Visidon algorithms are executed on high-performance processor architectures like Synopsys ARC EV6/7x Processor IP with tightly integrated deep neural network (DNN) engine. Algorithms utilize both the neural network engine and also the DSP cores.
