Why FPGAs are so beneficial for VR applications?

Virtual Reality (VR) is an immersive technology that aims to create a simulated environment, often with a high degree of realism. As the demand for more sophisticated VR experiences grows, the need for efficient and high-performance computing solutions becomes crucial. One of the most well-known applications of VR is in entertainment, but its use extends to a wide range of fields and everyday activities. Some of the industries that benefit from this technology are healthcare, education, aviation, automotive, education or logistics, and the list continue as the technology advances.

Your first DSP module with Vitis HLS

Have you ever wondered how you can speed up the process to get running your custom DSP module in hardware ASAP? Implementing even the simplest DSP in hardware using plain HDL is not very intuitive. Particularly, if you are not familiar with hardware design. Interfaces, synchronism and data types are some of the concepts that you have to take care of. Along with hardware design concepts (clocks, registers, flip-flops) and toolsets (Vivado, Vitis, HLS). It takes too much effort and then… you give up.

Embedded Vision and FPGAs: Camera interfaces made simple

Embedded vision is a growing topic in today’s connected world. Many applications are moving away from using the cloud and big servers for processing. Among those are Artificial intelligence, image recognition, or video monitoring. As a result, it pushes image processing closer to the edge. Making small size, lightweight, and low-power consumption key factors to consider. Special purpose hardware is opening the door into

the world of the embedded vision.
