PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avnet
(Nasdaq: AVT),
a global technology solutions company, today announced the new
Multi-Camera FMC Module, an UltraZed-compatible device designed to help
engineers more quickly and efficiently develop custom video systems
using Xilinx MPSoCs, and in turn, allows customers to immediately start
development of their vision applications.
“Avnet recognized early that modern vision applications require a mix of
hardware and software to achieve an optimal embedded solution,” said
Mario Bergeron, technical marketing engineer, Avnet. “The Avnet
Quad-Camera FMC Bundle, together with the Xilinx Zynq-UltraScale+ MPSoC,
offers an ideal embedded platform for embedded vision algorithms.”
The Avnet Multi-Camera FMC Module expands the company’s embedded vision
support for video analytics, video imaging, surveillance and other
vision-guided functionalities, with applications for a range of
industries including: automotive, defense and aerospace, embedded
processing, and the Internet of Things (IoT).
“The Avnet Multi-Camera FMC module is a critical piece of Xilinx
reVISION strategy and comes with complete tools, IP and design support
to create an out-of-box experience for users,” said Girish Malipeddi,
product manager for video and imaging solutions at Xilinx, a MIPI
Alliance contributor. “In working with Avnet to deliver this product,
we’ll be able to expand Xilinx’s role in automotive, drones and consumer
applications.”
The Multi-Camera FMC Module is available as a standalone component or
within the Quad-Camera FMC Bundle, which also includes a cable assembly
and four camera modules with GMSL serialization. The Quad Camera FMC
Bundle is fully integrated to the Xilinx reVISION stack, which features
development resources to help design engineers get their ideas to market
faster.
“The Avnet Multi-Camera FMC module will empower our customers to quickly
develop high performance imaging solutions for autonomous driving and
vision-guided applications,” said John Gerard, director of marketing for
the Intelligent Sensing Group at ON Semiconductor. “The integration of
the AR0231AT CMOS image sensor into the Multi-Camera FMC Module enables
it to achieve over 120dB dynamic range with LED flicker mitigation,
allowing the platform to operate in the most challenging lighting
conditions.”
