From ADAS to driverless, everything is ready

From the electric windows of the early 1950s to the latest car driving systems of today, the high-end features of luxury cars have finally been applied to mid-range and economical cars over time, becoming a must-have electronic and electrical system. . According to the survey, by 2025, every newly produced car has a certain degree of mobile interconnection. With the development of ADAS and rearview/viewing systems, cars are becoming more intelligent and safer, and driverlessness is no longer a dream.

From ADAS to driverless, everything is ready

Undoubtedly, safe driving in today's automotive market is a top priority, especially as government safety standards require the latest and most intelligent safety systems, such as the US spare camera and the European NCAP Automatic Electronic Brake System (AEB). "For OEMs using Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) technology, in-vehicle camera systems have become an important differentiating factor," said Kevin Tanaka, senior manager of automotive marketing and product planning at Xilinx.

From ADAS to driverless, everything is ready

The differentiation of the in-vehicle camera system also requires the complexity of the architecture function of the ADAS system to be continuously improved. It is required that the visual system needs to display video processing (such as image enhancement and distortion correction) and graphic information superposition function to the driver; non-visual system requires Image processing analysis functions; motion estimation and other deep analysis functions used to describe the vehicle environment support continuous threat assessment and driving countermeasures.

Smarter visual "smart" is inevitable

Faced with the intelligence of the above advanced driver assistance systems, Xilinx's Smarter visual "smart" is a must. According to Kevin Tanaka, as the primary processing platform in ADAS, Xilinx All Programmable devices and solutions enable:

Real-time analysis : Real-time image analysis includes target detection, identification, classification and tracking, enabling applications such as lane departure warning and pedestrian detection.

Video Processing and Display : Video frame capture, warp reduction and stitching, and 2D/2.5D/3D graphics and overlay capabilities help users customize what they see and feel when they are seen by vehicle drivers and occupants.

Intelligent Transmission : Programmable I/O modules and solutions for various communication standards such as Ethernet AVB and CAN provide a highly flexible and efficient method for video and data distribution throughout the vehicle.

The fastest time to market for differentiated products: not only can quickly differentiate products, avoid high ASIC NRE and similar ASSP solutions, but also use Xilinx advanced chips, programmable Xilinx SmartCORETM IP, comprehensive tools and stable and reliable The industrial environment supports the rapidly changing ADAS requirements.

In addition, Xilinx automotive solutions address the challenges of rapidly rolling out and upgrading to the latest standards, interfaces, and IP to process real-time images from multiple cameras on a single device.

Chip device series is ready for the whole line

Automotive-grade FPGAs deliver the best balance of performance, power, and cost; the automotive-grade Zynq-7000 All-Programmable SoC is an integrated, flexible, power-optimized solution with high computing performance and IP and design frameworks. Shorten development time, reduce risk and bring unique value to the ADAS market.

Kevin Tanaka pointed out that “integrating multiple cameras in driver assistance systems is a trend in the automotive industry.” However, due to the lack of flexibility in architecture, performance bottlenecks and high power consumption, existing multi-chip solutions are solving many problems. The camera's many functional requirements are not ideal. As a result, Xilinx's Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoCs have emerged to integrate the typical sensing, environmental functional description and decision making features required in the system into a single monolithic device.

“XA ZynqTM--7000 All Programmabl SoC is ideally suited for the high computational requirements of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The combination of software/hardware programmable features means functionality in the ADAS image flow (from induction to environmental characterization to Functional implementations can be switched between hardware and software to maximize performance while minimizing resource usage,” emphasizes Kevin Tanaka.

ADAS and the road to driverless cars

The evolving deployment of ADAS and V2X connectivity is paving the way for driver-assisted next-step development, predicting autonomous driving from intelligence. The latest HMI trends, such as head-up displays that support augmented reality and gesture recognition, are rapidly changing the way drivers interact with cars.

Xilinx's all-programmable technology enables next-generation automotive systems, including infotainment, driver information and advanced driver assistance systems. Only Xilinx offers such a flexible, standards-based solution that combines software programmability with high-performance image processing and tightly analyzes, any-to-any connectivity, and confidentiality and security. Combined to meet the needs of a new generation of automotive systems.

For these next-generation automotive and ADAS systems, designers can take advantage of the heterogeneous processing capabilities of the SDSoCTM development environment and Zynq® UltraScale+TM MPSoC devices for connectivity, video encoding, graphics processing, real-time control and security. At the same time, Xilinx is shipping to AD OEMs using FPGA-based and Zynq®-7000 All Programmable SoC-based devices for 16 OEMs, providing strong support to most major OEMs currently in production.
