IO352: Simulink-Programmable FPGA I/O Module for Vision Applications

Scalable Vision Processing, Sensor Fusion, Deep Learning, and High-Speed Controls

The IO352 is a powerful lowest latency vision FPGA processing I/O module for use with the Performance and Baseline real-time target machines, and Simulink. Currently supported vision interfaces include USB-UVC, GigE Vision SDI, HDMI, and Display Port.

Data from the IO352 and additional installed I/O modules can be combined and used to build ultra-high fidelity real-time controls and vision applications. Such applications include detection, robotics, medical imaging, machine vision, and ADAS/AD, as well as camera emulation and video fault insertion support.

The IO352 provides low-latency interfaces to application components running on the CPU or additionally installed Simulink-programmable FPGA I/O modules. You can define within Simulink which components of your Simulink model run on the multi-core CPU or one of the multiple FPGAs.

Vision applications designed with Simulink and the Vision HDL Toolbox are automatically loaded to the IO352 Xilinx Ultrascale+ FPGA with 500k logic cells using HDL Coder from MathWorks.

High speed data logging, instrumentation, and testing capabilities are enabled with Simulink Real-Time™.

Key Features

  • Lowest-latency real-time vision processing with one or multiple interconnected IO352 I/O modules.
  • USB-UVC, GigE-Vision, SDI, HDMI, and video file input support, and GigE-Vision, SDI, HDMI, and Display Port output support.
  • Conversion of vision data from one vision protocol to another.
  • Fusion of video data with other I/O data acquired or emulated through additionally installed I/O modules.
  • Combination of vision with controls and DSP algorithms or plant simulations, and simultaneous and synchronized real-time execution on multi-core CPUs and on one or multiple Simulink-programmable FPGA I/O modules.
  • High-speed data logging, instrumentation, and testing capabilities enabled with Simulink Real-Time.
