Ambarella H3 SoC delivers 8K Ultra HD at 30 frames per second
and 4K Ultra HD at 120 frames per second
Ambarella, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMBA), a leading developer of low-power,
HD and Ultra HD video processing semiconductors, today introduced
the H3 System-on-Chip (SoC) for high-end drones and a new
generation of video cameras, including 360-degree and virtual
reality cameras. The H3 video SoC enables 8K Ultra HD H.264/AVC
video at 30 frames per second, as well as multiple video streams
with equivalent performance, including 360-degree cameras with dual
4KP60 sensor video capture.
8K videos played on large 8K displays provide a better viewing
experience to the end user, as pixels at this resolution are
indistinguishable to the human eye at any reasonable distance. The
combination of 8K video capture together with Ambarella’s advanced
oversampling and image stabilization also enables higher video
quality 4K video recording.
“With the introduction of H3 we believe we provide the highest
video performance and best image quality solution for high-end
drones and multi-sensor video cameras,” said Fermi Wang, president
and CEO of Ambarella. “H3 delivers 8Kp30 video performance to match
the next generation of displays, such as 8K televisions and high
resolution head-mounted displays.”
H3 includes a powerful multi-channel ISP for 360 degree video
capture and multi-sensor drone applications. Its 10-bit HEVC High
Dynamic Range (HDR) video processing handles high contrast and wide
color range scenes. It also features Ambarella’s advanced
Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS), capable of generating a
smooth 4Kp60 video output under challenging conditions, including
during high winds and with high degrees of rotation. The
integration of a quad-core ARM® Cortex®-A53 CPU with floating point
and NEON™ provides significant processing power for customer
applications including computer vision, wireless networking, and
multi-sensor stitching algorithms. The H3’s hardware de-warping
engine supports wide-angle panoramic camera designs and fish-eye
lenses.
Ambarella will demonstrate the new H3 SoC at a private,
invitation only event held during the Consumer Electronics Show
(CES) in Las Vegas, January 5 – 8, 2017.
