The IO352 is a powerful lowest latency vision FPGA processing I/O module for use with the Performance and Baseline real-time target machines, and Simulink®. Currently supported vision interfaces include USB-UVC, GigE Vision SDI, HDMI, and Display Port.
Data from the IO352 and additional installed I/O modules can be combined and used to build ultra-high fidelity real-time controls and vision applications. Such applications include detection, robotics, medical imaging, machine vision, and ADAS/AD, as well as camera emulation and video fault insertion support.
The IO352 provides low-latency interfaces to application components running on the CPU or additionally installed Simulink®-programmable FPGA I/O modules. You can define within Simulink® which components of your Simulink model run on the multi-core CPU or one of the multiple FPGAs.
Vision applications designed with Simulink® and the Vision HDL Toolbox™ are automatically loaded to the IO352 AMD® Ultrascale+ FPGA with 500k logic cells using HDL Coder™ from MathWorks®.
High speed data logging, instrumentation, and testing capabilities are enabled with Simulink® Real-Time™.
