indie Semiconductor, Inc. (Nasdaq: INDI), an Autotech solutions
innovator, today announced the addition of a highly innovative
iND880xx product line to its fast-growing vision processor
portfolio, developed to address the demanding specifications of
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and driver viewing use
cases, such as Surround View systems and Electronic Mirrors. This
latest family of processors further enhances indie’s comprehensive
suite of sensing solutions for computer vision, LiDAR, radar, and
ultrasound, and underpins indie’s leadership as the only automotive
company to offer a dynamic portfolio spanning all edge-sensing
modalities.
Vision-based sensing has rapidly become a critical sensor
modality for ADAS, driven by government regulation, new car
acceptance programs (NCAP), and improved consumer awareness of
vehicle safety. Key safety applications enabled by vision sensing
include automated emergency braking (AEB), lane keep assist (LKA),
blind spot detection (BSD), driver and occupant monitoring
(DMS/OMS), smart back-up, and vulnerable road user (VRU)
protection. In fact, the need for improved VRU protection - which
aims to safeguard pedestrians in particular - was recently
bolstered by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) AEB regulation
FMV127. This progressive regulation includes testing requirements
for pedestrian AEB (PAEB), including low-light and nighttime
testing, placing stringent requirements on vision processor
performance.
The iND880xx video processor system-on-chip (SoC) family sets
new benchmarks in image signal processing (ISP) performance and
functionality for both viewing and sensing applications. Balancing
the competing needs of low light sensor performance (luminance) and
the ability to differentiate colors (chrominance) for
high-performance perception (for example, to accurately
differentiate red and amber traffic lights) has been an ongoing
challenge for legacy vision processors. High latency initialization
and pipeline processing has also limited legacy ADAS camera system
real-time safety capabilities. The iND880xx family addresses these
unique challenges through the product’s proprietary ISP pipeline
ability to support concurrent, low-latency processing of four
independent sensor inputs, delivering a combined maximum throughput
of 1400 megapixels per second.
Additionally, proprietary ISP features include a 24-bit
processing pipeline that enables high dynamic range (HDR)
processing up to 144dB, with dedicated support for the broadest
range of sensor color filter arrays (CFAs), including RGGB, RCCB,
RYYCy, and RGB-IR, facilitating the highest performance
environmental perception even in low light conditions. Further, the
ISP supports eWarp®, indie’s proprietary high-performance geometric
processing, to dewarp image distortion from a wide field of view
lens. These class-leading ISP capabilities allow automakers the
scalability to deploy multiple instances of the iND880xx into
various high-performance viewing and ADAS sensing use cases across
their entire vehicle portfolio.
“The iND880xx product family represents a revolutionary step in
performance and integration for automotive vision processing,” said
Abhay Rai, indie's chief product officer. “The imperatives for
vision-based ADAS sensing applications are growing, while in
parallel consumer expectations for camera-based innovation are
accelerating. Automakers need to deploy multiple cameras to drive
various applications in demanding environmental conditions,
including low light, as exemplified by the recent NHTSA PAEB
regulation. Our groundbreaking iND880xx processor family delivers
on all these challenges.”
The iND880xx family is sampling with select lead customers and
will be in serial production deployment in 2025.
The iND880xx solution will be showcased at the upcoming AutoSens
Europe 2024 in Barcelona, Spain, October 8-10.
