DesignCore® Development Kits

Based on the Texas Instruments TDAx line of automotive vision processors, this rugged, compact design supports multiple simultaneous vision sensors, radar sensors, and a host of peripherals including displays, CAN, USB, and Gigabit Ethernet.

All Rugged Vision Platform (RVP) Development Kits accept camera inputs using the FPD-Link III high-bandwidth serial camera interface.

Some RVP models include a Vision Acceleration Pac (EVE) that offloads the vision analytics functionality from the processor while also reducing the power footprint. The Vision Acceleration Pac (EVE) is optimized for vision processing with a 32-bit RISC core for efficient program execution and a vector coprocessor for specialized vision processing.
