Smart car outlook, advanced semiconductor industry for driving assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle information and communications and networking applications such as car, actively developing a new generation of components, to grabbing more smart car. Smart car development is on the rise, not only to attract well-known dealer network operators and grab to eat pie, semiconductor industry also likes ADAS, in-car entertainment and networking applications such as increasing demand for car electric components, and expand the product deployment.
Imagination in active layout ADAS, market, and the assembly at the 2016 international consumer electronics show (CES) display and cooperation partners, such as Mobileye, Renesas (Renesas), Luxoft, Rightware common development of the car more products.
It is understood that in the current installed ADAS system, most of all adopt the Imagination's MIPS IP products. Includes the leading car chip industry Mobileye solutions - MIPS - -based SoC; And Mobileye published in early 2016, the latest EyeQ4 chips, also USES the Imagination of MIPS multicore architecture, its MIPS I - a class of multiple thread technology and M - class efficiency advantage, can realize the excellent performance with ultra-low power consumption and is suitable for collision detection and dodge the ADAS applications such as computer vision processing.
Mobileye project, senior vice President of Elchanan Rushinek said, through the Imagination of MIPS CPU support, which can realize high efficiency of real-time processing and control; And MIPS IO Coherence Unit (IOCU) features for ADAS such need by the CPU and consistency to manage multiple applications of accelerator provides significant differentiation advantage. More Imagination multi-threaded MIPS CPU has to assist the company in each generation EyeQ SoC, can achieve significant performance improvement.
In addition to the above mentioned MIPS IP, Imagination PowerVR GPU technology has also been renesas, Texas instruments (TI), and other leading auto chip have been used to develop the dashboard and infotainment solutions. Renesas recently published in the near future the new R - Car H3 SoC, which built in one hundred and ninety-two of ALU core higher-order PowerVR GX6650 GPU, and support can meet the specifications of the top hardware virtualization technology, improve the cognitive operation and human-machine interface (HMI) arithmetic functions, can be used to develop advanced driving support system, and Car infotainment (IVI) system.
Vice President of Renesas and car information systems business unit director Masahiro Suzuki, points out that the external information of today the IVI system of transport volume increased dramatically, so you need to HMI (Human machine Interface) operational function to real-time, correctly deal with the large amount of data. PowerVR GX6650 for R - Car H3 3 d graphics engine, compared with R - Car H2, has nearly three times the shader processing efficiency, can provide reliable information for driving, at the right time to achieve advanced application with rich HMI.
Imagination, chief executive of Yassaie was automobile industry are now facing an important turning point. ADAS and driverless cars are being driven by automotive electronic growth in many areas, including dashboards, infotainment systems, and intelligent camera, etc.
Imagination to a wide range of solutions to promote the progress of the automobile application. It contains the support hardware virtualization technology and has scalability PowerVR GPU, can be achieved for the operation and visual application reliability and highly effective treatment; Have many thread function of MIPS CPU core, which can realize real-time operation and efficiency, safety and reliability of hardware virtualization technology; Multiple criteria and Ensigma the global solutions of the radio link with technology.
