Imagination unveils DXS GPU IP for in-vehicle intelligence and interaction

Imagination Technologies unveiled Imagination DXS GPU, its latest automotive GPU IP for in-vehicle intelligence and interaction. DXS is a scalable and flexible GPU IP designed to process graphics and compute workloads in cockpit, infotainment and advanced driver assistance systems. It introduces new innovations in distributed safety, eliminating the overhead of achieving ASIL-B functional safety on Imagination processors. The Imagination DXS GPU supports the graphics and compute requirements of an entire vehicle line-up with single core configurations starting at 0.25 TFLOPS and scaling up to 1.5 TFLOPS – 50% higher peak performance than Imagination’s previous generation automotive GPU IP. Imagination’s unique multi-core technology allows for two, three and four core configurations, while the low bandwidth bus between cores and support for isolation suits the use of IMG DXS in chiplets.  It adopts relevant features introduced into the PowerVR architecture in D-Series, such as Pipelined Data Masters and 2D Dual-Rate Texturing, to boost performance efficiency by 20% over previous generations of automotive GPU IP and ensure that it outperforms competitive cores on real world benchmarks.   “Imagination is a leading provider of GPU IP into automotive,” says Anshel Sag, Principal Analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy. “The demand for pixel processing in cars has grown enormously...
