Overview

The client needs high throughput, low cost, and a small form factor camera platform that can feed RAW images to their proprietory AI/ML engine. In addition to that, there will be additional PC-based custom utilities required which can control(read/write) different parameters/modes of image sensors. The HW platform also needs to controls special external devices and provide power to them which helps to improve picture qualities. All the devices are connected with bus interfaces like I2C, SPI and GPIOs. There is another utility that needs to be developed that can be used to control/configure/monitor these external devices from the PC itself.

Engibrains offered ARM® Cortex®-M4F Microcontroller and ThreadX Os-based engineering solution which captures 4K resolution RAW 12 bit image in snapshot mode from the camera at 10FPS. There will be a windows-based library that can be exercised to provide RAW images to the AI/ML engine. There were separate utilities developed which control/configure/monitor image sensor and external devices. There were extensive test cases (total 200+ test cases) defined by Engibrain’s QA team to make sure the quality of the HW and SW developed.Team Engibrains has delivered working prototypes along with the desired throughput and feature set.
