  • Multiprocessor pipeline architecture
    Patent number: 11983790
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments for a multiprocessor pipeline architecture that converts signals from sequencing sample acquisition into sequence data, comprising: a custom coprocessor card configured to directly receive a stream of serialized sensor data generated by an image sensor, wherein the sensor data represents frame-by-frame intensity values for pixels comprising the image sensor, wherein the image sensor captures images of light emitted from a plurality of reaction cells of a removable integrated sequencing chip; a first coprocessor that continually receives the stream of serialized sensor data and transposes the frame-by-frame intensity values into reaction cell chunks, each of the reaction cell chunks representing movie data of the pixel intensity values of a corresponding reaction cell across the frames over a predetermined time window; a buffer that repeatedly receives the reaction cell chunks and stores in contiguous memory locations the reaction cell chunks for each respective reaction cell over a large
