Introducing a world-leading lightweight, low-power smart camera family with dedicated Artificial Intelligence (AI) acceleration.
The innovation lies in the unique balance between peak AI processing at 8/16 trillion-operation-per-second (8/16 TOPS) with the lowest power consumption and small form factor ratio.
The technology enables processing of uncompressed (raw) imagery right at collection time to extract maximum scene information in real-time. A variety of judiciously-chosen image resolutions mean the widest field of view is available for applications while allowing timely video analytics.
The SDK provides ease of programming with high-level languages such as C, C++, Python, empowering a wide class of technology developers and integrators to quickly deploy their own code without requiring a lengthy development time as with FPGAs.
The Linux operating system and firmware also allow custom drivers and third-party libraries to be installed to suit many applications.
For customers who wish for an off-the-shelf product, key functionalities are available with optimised software libraries for long-range, sub-pixel target detection, tracking with handover to AI-based object recognition, super-resolution and more.
While the raw data can be stored in the built-in SSD, the camera is able to concurrently produce geolocated thumbnails of detected and classified objects. This approach considerably alleviates typical platform-based processing (rather than edge computing) and large data movement. It facilitates data fusion with other onboard sensing modalities and enhances swarm coordination and information sharing by reducing data traffic. Reduced communication increases cybersecurity and jamming protection.
Variants of the base camera model can incorporate GPS-denied geolocation, precise altitude estimation and accurate imagery time-stamping. The camera is built with ingress protection rated at IP67 and compliant with MIL-STD-810 standards. Further ruggedisation can be done to meet customer’s target environment, for instance, if known to be corrosive or extremely hot/cold.
