LG selects CEVA imaging & vision DSP for mobile devices

By offloading these performance-intensive tasks from the CPUs and GPUs, the highly-efficient DSP dramatically reduces the power consumption of the overall system, while providing complete flexibility.

The platform includes a vector processor developed specifically to deal with the complexities of such applications and an extensive Application Development Kit (ADK) to enable easy development environment. The CEVA ADK includes an Android Multimedia Framework (AMF) that streamlines software development and integration effort, a set of advanced software development tools and a range of software products and libraries optimised for the DSP. For embedded systems targeting deep learning, the CEVA Deep Neural Network (CDNN) real-time neural network software framework streamlines machine learning deployment at a fraction of the power consumption of the leading GPU-based systems.

Gideon Wertheizer, CEO, CEVA, commented: “We are delighted to announce LG Electronics as a customer for our imaging and vision DSP. Their market leadership and stellar reputation for leading edge innovation in mobile enables them to fully leverage the capabilities of our DSP to add feature-rich, differentiated vision-based technologies to their mobile devices.”
