  • Publication number: 20250080687
    Abstract: A circuit includes a first processor core, a second processor core, and a video processing circuit. The first processor core is configured to program the video processing circuit to: provide a rear view image processing path, and to transfer a rear view image from the rear view image processing path to a surround view image processing path. The second processor core is configured to program the video processing circuit to provide the surround view image processing path, to receive the rear view image from the rear view image processing path, and to provide a surround view image based on the rear view image.

  • Patent number: 11875450
    Abstract: A system on a chip (SoC) includes a digital signal processor (DSP) and a graphics processing unit (GPU) coupled to the DSP. The DSP is configured to receive a stream of received depth measurements and generate a virtual bowl surface based on the stream of received depth measurements. The DSP is also configured to generate a bowl to physical camera mapping based on the virtual bowl surface. The GPU is configured to receive a first texture and receive a second texture. The GPU is also configured to perform physical camera to virtual camera transformation on the first texture and on the second texture, based on the bowl to physical camera mapping, to generate an output image.

  • Publication number: 20220237137
    Abstract: An example system includes a pipeline depth determination circuit and a buffer depth determination circuit. The pipeline depth determination circuit is configured to analyze input-output connections between a plurality of processing nodes specified to perform a processing task, and determine a pipeline depth of the processing task based on the input-output connections. The buffer depth determination circuit is configured to analyze the input-output connections between the plurality of processing nodes, and assign, based on the input-output connections, a depth value to each of a plurality of buffer memories configured to store output of a first of the processing nodes for input to a second of the processing nodes.
