AnaLogic Computers has released InstantVision ISE 3.1, a new version of the company’s integrated image processing software environment that has been optimised to run at high speeds on embedded vision systems.
InstantVision ISE 3.1 offers greatly enhanced tools for developing embedded video analytics and other image processing applications. The new version includes significant improvements to two of the main InstantVision libraries: the Multitarget Tracking Library (MTT Lib) has undergone a major revamp of its powerful tracking algorithm, resulting in significantly improved performance and accuracy, and the Software and Image Flow Processing Library (SIF Lib) now includes a second foreground-background separation algorithm, providing additional flexibility for application developers to choose the algorithm that best suits their needs.
The updated version now fully supports C-MVA 1.1, the newest and enhanced version of AnaLogic’s C-MVA (Cellular Multicore Video Analytics) processor technology, in which the most computationally demanding image pre-processing tasks are executed by the C-MVA processor (currently embedded in FPGA) leaving the DSP to focus on higher-level tasks such as event detection and image encoding to significantly increasing overall performance.
The InstantVision libraries are compatible with any platform. They have been optimised for deployment on AnaLogic’s high-speed Bi-i V301F intelligent camera reference design, which is powered by a TI DSP and a Xilinx FPGA.
