The automotive market puts strict and often conflicting requirements on computer vision systems. On the one hand the algorithms require considerable computing power to work reliably in real-time and under a wide range of lighting conditions. On the other hand, the cost must be kept low, the package size must be small and the power consumption must be low. In addition, automotive qualified parts must be used both to withstand the harsh operating environment and to guarantee long product life.To meet all these conflicting requirements Mobileye developed the EyeQ, a complete 'system on a chip' (SoC) which has the computing power to support a variety of applications such as lane, vehicle and pedestrian detection. This paper describes the process of designing an ASIC to support a family of vision algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
