Image Signal Processing for ADAS and Display Applications
Overview
Arm Mali-C78AE builds on the high-performance capabilities of the Mali-C71AE ISP, combined with the class-leading image quality performance seen in Mali-C52 for IoT. It’s designed for use in automotive ADAS and display applications that share cameras for both functions.
Key Features
- Multi-Camera Support
- Up to 4 real-time, or 16 camera streams from memory. Simultaneous inputs from a mix of sensor and CFA types.
- Advanced Image Processing
- Image quality enhancements for display, providing high-quality outputs from sensors developed for machine vision applications.
- Every Pixel Reliable
- Real-time hardware safety features for ADAS and HMI applications, with every pixel tagged for reliability.
- Robust Safety Capabilities
- Safety features that meet ASIL B/SIL 2 diagnostic requirements and ASIL D/SIL 3 for the avoidance of systematic failure.
- Dynamic Range Management
- 24-bit dynamic range processing with independent dynamic range management for optimum display or CV outputs.
- Computer Vision Processing
- Scaled outputs, region-of-interest crops and planar histograms, supporting advanced CV applications.
Benefits
- Real-Time Performance
- Mali-C78AE can support up to 4 realtime or up to 16 virtual cameras of varying types, and offers a wide range of data output formats. This provides the flexibility to support both human and machine vision applications, such as production line monitoring, quality control, and ADAS camera systems.
- Safety Features
- Mali-C78AE has built-in features to achieve ASIL B/SIL 2 diagnostic requirements and ASIL D/SIL 3 for the avoidance of systematic failure. It enables safe-vision use cases, such as ADAS or industrial mobile robotics.
