<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe Raspberry Pi Foundation has announced it’s bringing the OpenVX 1.3 API to Raspberry Pi devices to improve computer vision on the popular single-board computers.<\/p>\n
The new open and royalty-free API comes from the Khronos Group, which has backed standards like Vulcan and OpenCL. Khronos members include most big-name software and hardware vendors – AMD, Apple, Arm, Epic Games, Google, Samsung, Intel, Nvidia and so on – as well as companies with a stake in its standards, like Boeing and IKEA. <\/p>\n
“The Khronos Group and Raspberry Pi have come together to work on an open-source implementation of OpenVX 1.3<\/a>, which passes the conformance on Raspberry Pi,” explained<\/a> Kiriti Nagesh Gowda, AMD’s MTS software development engineer. <\/p>\n “The open-source implementation passes the Vision, Enhanced Vision, & Neural Net conformance profiles specified in OpenVX 1.3 on Raspberry Pi.”<\/p>\n The Raspberry Pi, being popular, cheap and relatively low powered, is an important device to prove conformance for the computer-vision standard. <\/p>\n Gowda explains that the OpenVX 1.3 conformance testing conducted for Raspberry Pi “helps ensure that Khronos standards are consistently implemented by multiple vendors to create a reliable platform for developers”. <\/p>\n OpenVX aims to bring efficient, real-time computer-vision processing to embedded computer devices, such as surveillance devices, advanced driver assistance systems, augmented reality, and robotics.<\/p>\n “The developers can take advantage of using this robust API in their application and know that the application is portable across all the conformant hardware<\/a>,” explained Gowda. <\/p>\n The two Raspberry Pi models that passed the test are the Raspberry Pi 3 Model and the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B. <\/p>\n The Khronos Group has published a OpenVX 1.3 sample implementation<\/a> as well as several sample computer-vision applications<\/a> on GitHub.<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> Liam Tung <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"See Campaign: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.khronos.org\/registry\/OpenVX\/specs\/1.3\/html\/OpenVX_Specification_1_3.html<\/a>
