6 Oct, 2015

 TOKYO – Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) today announced that DENSO Corporation (DENSO) is deploying Toshiba’s TMPV7506XBG image recognition processor in its latest front-camera-based active safety system. Vehicles equipped with DENSO’s camera system will reach the market in fall of 2015.

 

The TMPV7506XBG image recognition processor IC supports multiple camera-based Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) functions, including lane detection, vehicle detection, pedestrian detection and traffic sign recognition. It concurrently executes multiple applications with low power consumption.

 

Toshiba is developing a family of automotive image recognition processor solutions. Products include TMPV7528XBG, which adds an ARM® Cortex®-A9 MPCore, and the TMPV7608XBG, which offers Toshiba’s original color-based pattern recognition technology, ideal for pedestrian recognition at night.

 

Toshiba is committed to innovations in safety and technology in automotive semiconductor solutions that meet the requirements of European New Car Assessment Programme (NCAP) and other automotive safety requirements.
