News Releases
AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands, Sept. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- b<>com and Synaptics® Incorporated (Nasdaq: SYNA) announced today that b<>com has implemented its market-proven *Sublima*™ algorithm on Synaptics’ VS680 multimedia system on chip (SoC). This is the first AI-enabled frame-accurate, dynamic SDR-to-HDR video conversion for set-top boxes (STBs). The algorithm fully leverages the VS680’s optimized neural processing unit (NPU), 7.9 TOPS performance, heterogeneous architecture, and security capabilities. The combination provides an efficient, AI-enriched approach to process video in real-time for enhanced video experiences on STBs, over-the-top (OTT) streaming devices, and smart TVs.
*Sublima* on the VS680 will be showcased at this week’s IBC in Synaptics’ Booth Hall 1, C.20. For a demonstration of this and Synaptics’ suite of multimedia and wireless connectivity solutions, email: press@synaptics.com.
“This is the first time we have used an Edge-optimized AI approach for our HDR conversion technology. The VS680 platform provides a more compact and efficient way to seamlessly convert video content to the immersive and realistic HDR format,” said Tania Pouli, Director of Strategy Video at b<>com. “Importantly, *Sublima* achieves this while maintaining video quality and competitive price points for consumer and industrial video systems.”
Synaptics’ NPU-powered SoC enables *Sublima*’s frame-by-frame dynamic conversion to improve the quality and energy consumption compared to other less efficient static conversion methods.
“b<>com takes full advantage of the VS680’s NPU, CPU, and GPU heterogeneous architecture by using the SyNAP toolkit to securely balance the *Sublima* algorithm and optimize it for performance, power, and accuracy,” said Siddarth Chandrasekar, Sr. Director of Product Marketing at Synaptics. “This is a strong example of how the SyNAP toolkit can be used to deliver differentiated AI-enhanced user experiences.”
Synaptics’ highly integrated VS680 supports multiple DNN frameworks, including TensorFlow™ Lite, NN API, and OpenVX™. An ISP that is fully integrated into the secure multimedia pipeline provides an optimized system solution for Edge AI vision.
