Renesas Electronics Introduces the ADAS Application Starter Development Kit


Tokyo, Japan, July 16, 2015 - Renesas Electronics Corporation, the world's leading semiconductor and solutions provider, today introduced the industry's smallest R-Car development kit, the ADAS entry-level kit. The kit uses Renesas' high-end R-Car H2 System-on-Chip (SoC) to help simplify and accelerate the development of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) applications.

Renesas Electronics Introduces the ADAS Application Starter Development Kit

The new ADAS entry-level kit extends Renesas' existing R-Car V2H-based ADAS development board, enabling users and partners to experience the high-performance real-time image recognition performance of Renesas SoCs while also helping to accelerate future ADAS applications. Development process for dedicated hardware and software solutions.

The ADAS entry-level kit features a high-performance real-time image recognition processor that supports the OpenCV interface and powerful graphics processing capabilities based on OpenGLES, enabling users and partners to develop ADAS applications on a stable, high-performance platform. The new kit is powered by Linux based on the Yocto distribution (also available for other R-Car evaluation boards).

This new entry-level kit is the industry's smallest Renesas R-Car development kit, measuring just 10cm x 10cm, with preset interfaces and peripherals, without the need for any additional hardware. The main development board comes with 2 GB of DDR3 RAM memory, 64 MB of QSPI flash memory and a Micro SD card slot. The compact form factor also includes an Ethernet module, an HDMI output, and a camera module connector. It is equipped with an integrated expansion connector for easy custom design. Users can easily design expansion boards and easily develop new solutions. The expansion connector supports interfaces such as PCI Express (PCIe), multi-channel display output, and four-channel camera input channels to meet the needs of panoramic viewing applications.

About Renesas R-Car H2 SoC

The new ADAS entry-level kit comes with Renesas' high-end R-Car H2 System-on-Chip (SoC), which delivers up to 25,000 DMIPS of computing power, advanced 3D graphics processing and a powerful visual processing core. The R-Car H2 is available in an ARM® CortexTM A-15 quad-core configuration with an ARM® CortexTM A-7 quad-core processor. In addition, it uses the PowerVR Series6 G6400 graphics processor (GPU) from ImaginaTIon Technologies. The GPU supports open source technologies such as OpenGL ES 2.0 and OpenGL ES 3.0 standards. The Renesas IMP-X4 core has real-time image processing capabilities to help system manufacturers achieve intensive visual operations. OpenCV supporting IMP-X4 is also available. The R-Car H2 also supports up to four independent camera input channels for 360-degree panoramic shooting and object recognition (this is just one example of a driver assistance feature). With these features, the R-Car H2 combines advanced security concepts to help developers achieve powerful ADAS capabilities.
