Toshiba Develops DNN Hardware IP for Image Recognition AI Processor ViscontiTM5 for Automotive Driver Assistance Systems
Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) today announced the development of Deep Neural Network (DNN [1]) hardware IP[2] that will help to realize advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving functions.
- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) today announced the development of Deep Neural Network (DNN [1]) hardware IP[2] that will help to realize advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving functions.
- The company will integrate the DNN hardware IP with conventional image processing technology and start sample shipments of ViscontiTM5, the next generation of Toshibas image-recognition processor, in September 2019.
- The DNN hardware IP draws on deep learning to deliver more accurate detection and identification of a wider range of objects than image recognition based on conventional pattern recognition and machine learning.
- Toshiba will promote ViscontiTM5 equipped with DNN hardware IP as a key component of next-generation advanced driver assistance systems.
