EVPS: An Automotive Video Acquisition and Processing Platform

Abstract

This paper describes a versatile and flexible video acquisition and processing platform for automotive. It is designed to meet aggressive requirements in terms of bandwidth and latency when implementing ADAS functions. Based on a Xilinx Ultrascale+ FPGA device, a vision processing pipeline mixing software and hardware tasks is implemented on this platform. This setup is able to collect four automotive camera streams (MIPI CSI2) and process them in the loop before transmitting a more intelligible pre-processed/enhanced data.
