IoT application processor suits Edge computing, Edge AI

It provides advanced multimedia, and power efficiency for Edge computing and Edge AI applications. Its flexible I/O supports GbE and Wi-Fi-6/5G modules suitable for IoT applications.

The Genio 1200 (MT8395) device is a highly integrated, powerful platform designed for a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) use cases requiring high-performance edge processing, advanced multimedia and connectivity capabilities, multiple high-resolution cameras, connected touchscreen displays, and the use of a multitasking high-level operating system (HLOS).

The highly capable octa-core application processor utilizes the Arm DynamIQ technology by combining high-performance Cortex-A78 and power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores, equipped with Arm Neon engine.

The application processor offers the necessary processing power to support the latest OpenOS, along with its demanding applications such as smart home appliances, industrial IoT, and other AI-embedded devices.

This content can be enhanced by the 2D/3D graphics accelerator (Arm Mali-G57 MC5 GPU) and then visualized on a high-resolution touchscreen display.

To provide advanced multimedia applications and services such as streaming audio and video, the device features multi-standard video encoder and decoder engines and an advanced audio subsystem.

The dual-core AI processor unit (APU) enables deep learning, neural network (NN) acceleration, and computer vision (CV) applications.

The latter, combined with a camera of up to 48 MP, can clearly and accurately perform AI-vision functions such as facial recognition, object identification, scene analysis, optical character recognition, and much more.

The SoC offers up to 16 GB of quad-channel LPDDR4X memory. An embedded, multi-core NPU is designed for demanding edge AI applications.

Applications cover smart retail including digital signage and desktop POS; Industrial: Edge AI, IoT gateway, and HMI and Smart homes: Fitness and smart homes.
