Axis introduces new ARTPEC-5 Chip
2013-12-24Axis Communications has announced the next generation of its market-leading system-on-chip for network video cameras and video encoders. The new ARTPEC-5 is based on dual-core multiprocessor architecture, features a larger cache size and higher memory throughput.
The new ARTPEC-5 chip features support for the H.264 High Profile (HiP) video compression standard and high frame rate (60 fps) encoding in full HDTV resolution (1080p). With ARTPEC-5, Axis is introducing an optimized design, resulting in reduced power consumption of network video cameras and video encoders. The new chip can handle more video streams simultaneously than previous generations, features a faster SD card interface for edge storage and allows Axis to design cameras with advanced image processing capabilities to address the most demanding video surveillance challenges.
With its dual-core multiprocessor architecture, larger cache size and higher memory throughput, the new ARTPEC-5 chip provides more processing power and performance for intelligent video processing and video analytics applications. With AXIS Camera Application Platform, end users can easily select and download applications to their Axis cameras. A large portfolio of applications is available offering advanced functionalities such as recognition, counting, detection and tracking.
AXIS Camera Application Platform enables third-party software providers to develop applications that can be downloaded and installed on Axis cameras. Application developers can sign up for the Axis Application Development Partner (ADP) programme. Axis provides a software development kit (SDK) and a compatibility tool to ensure that applications run on all Axis cameras.
The first product incorporating the new ARTPEC-5 chip is the AXIS Q7436 Video Encoder, a new high-performance 6-channel video encoder blade.
