IP network video camera reference design with HD image quality

Texas Instruments Incorporated introduced to the market an optimized IP network video camera reference design DM355, with high definition (HD) image quality and ObjectVideo's new "intelligent analytics" technology.

The DM355 is the result of collaboration between TI, ObjectVideo, Zero One Technology (ZOT), Aptina Imaging (a division of Micron) and Appro Photoelectron,

Features include,

1. Is based on the DM355IPNC-MT5IP Security Camera reference design that TI and Aptina Imaging     introduced in March.
2. The new DM355 Intelligent IP network camera reference design builds on the existing solution,     which includes TI's DaVinci TMS320DM355 digital media processor and Aptina's 5-megapixel HD     security image sensor, with the addition of a video content analytics (VCA) daughter board.
3. This board implements an embedded solution running ObjectVideo intelligent video analytics     software on TI's DaVinci TMS320DM6435 digital media processor.
4. Aptina's 5-megapixel-image sensor comes with integrated auto white balance and auto exposure.
5. The camera delivers high-quality HD images, producing a field of view of 1280 x 720 pixels.
6. Also supports monitoring and notification of security events through a web browser.
7. ObjectVideo's new algorithms enable its software to distinguish between humans, vehicles and     other objects; and continuously track positions for all moving and stationary targets.

These features make the device suitable for video surveillance customers.

Pricing: US $995

Availability: The camera system will be sampling in the fourth quarter 2008.
