Endicott Research Group introduced a new range of plug-and-play LED driver solutions with enhanced performance features for high-power, high-brightness mid-size LED-backlit displays.
The new reference designs, enabling the rapid deployment of Internet-connected HDTVs for Zoran’s OEM and ODM customers, provide integrated software that includes both Zoran’s TV Applications and VUDU Apps.
CEVA-MM3000 supports both video and image pre/post processing algorithms such as scaling, stabilizer, and noise reduction in addition to many proprietary add-on applications, for example, augmented reality, gesture recognition and face detection.
TI announces the thinnest, smallest optical engine yet for pico video projection.
Because BSI technology uses a technique that inverts the sensor to collect light from the backside, it offers the most direct path for light to strike the pixel.
OmniVision’s second-generation backside illumination image sensors have achieved a 1.1-micron pixel size, enabling smaller sensors with better sensitivity.
TI’s 1 GHz DM6467T is a single-chip processor that enables networked digital video applications to decode high-definition (HD) H.264 1080p at 60 frames per second.
The TDA19989 HDMI 1.4 transmitter enables consumers to transfer HD multimedia content from their mobile phones directly to a television via the TV remote control.
Development teams can take advantage of Altia’s new features — including distort, snapshot object, and skin object and language — to create exciting user interfaces in a fraction of the time.
Marseille Networks’ new Virtual Tape-Out methodology was used to create a platform for quad-HD video displays as a demonstration project for the new process.
By eliminating the need for external FPGA devices to support 3DTV, NXP says this is a highly cost-effective post-processing solution that will enable manufacturers to bring competitively priced 3D-enabled TV sets to the mainstream consumer market.
OmniVision Technologies has launched a 14.6-megapixel image sensor capable of delivering high-resolution still photography and full 1080p high-definition (HD) video at 60 frames per second (fps).
Compared to the nearest 16 × 16 crosspoint switch alternative, the ADV3226 and ADV3227 deliver 50 percent less power at 1.2 W (watts) from a ±5 V (volt) supply and a 55 percent increase in speed at 700 MHz.
Featuring a high level of integration, NXP’s TDA18272 worldwide silicon tuner incorporates RF tracking filters, oscillators, IF selectivity and wide band gain control, eliminating the need for external components such as SAW filters or Baluns.
The STDP6000 accepts a wide range of digital inputs including DisplayPort, HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface), and DVI (Digital Video Interface), and also supports VGA inputs for connectivity to legacy analog sources.
The adaptive streaming logic inside the Onyx browser enables the bitrate of the video, and therefore its quality to be continuously adjusted to the actual broadband capacity available to a device.
