A View from Above - Aldec Adds 'Bird's Eye View' Function to Growing Portfolio of ADAS FPGA-based Reference Designs for TySOM™-3-ZU7EV Embedded Development Kit

From EDACafe, Oct. 16, 2018 – Aldec, Inc., an industry leader in electronic design verification, is making available yet more support for automotive design engineers with the addition of an Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS) 'Bird's Eye View' reference design for its TySOM™-3-ZU7EV embedded development kit.

Bird's Eye View is an embedded vision (EV) feature currently in high demand for ADAS as it provides a 360^o surrounding view of the vehicle, as if seen from above. As a minimum the feature will assist drivers when parking but it also has the potential to play a role in obstacle detection and for providing lane departure warnings.

The reference design is available with Aldec's TySOM™-3-ZU7EV embedded development kit and requires an FMC-ADAS daughter card and four fisheye cameras; also available from Aldec either separately or as part of Bird's Eye View bundle.
