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.
