Renesas RZ/V2L group

Microprocessor Equipped With Renesas' Original AI-Dedicated Accelerator "DRP-AI", 1.2GHz Dual-Core Arm® Cortex®-A55 CPU, 3D Graphics, and Video Codec Engine

DRP-AI’s excellent power efficiency eliminates the need for heat dissipation measures such as heat sinks or cooling fans. AI can be implemented cost efficiently not only in consumer electronics and industrial equipment but also in a wide range of applications such as point-of-sale (POS) terminals for retail. Also, the DRP-AI provides both real-time AI inference and image processing functions with the capabilities essential for camera support such as color correction and noise reduction. This enables customers to implement AI-based vision applications without requiring an external image signal processor (ISP).

Renesas RZ/V2M group

AI-only Accelerator (DRP-AI), 4K-compatible Image Signal Processor (ISP), Vision-AI ASSP for Real-time Human and Object Recognition

The AI dedicated hardware IP, DRP-AI, configured with DRP and AI-MAC, combines both a high-speed AI inference and low power consumption and realizes 1TOPS/W class power performance. In addition, the image signal processor (ISP) is highly robust, producing a stable image independent of the environment, allowing for a high AI recognition accuracy. With these features, the RZ/V2M realizes low power consumption, which is a challenge for embedded devices, making heat dissipation measures easier. Since heat sinks and cooling fans are no longer needed, the equipment can be miniaturized and the BOM cost can be reduced. The result is that it is ideal for vision AI applications in a wide range of embedded markets, including surveillance security, retail, office automation (OA), industrial automation, robotics, and healthcare.
