Super resolution offers the ideal solution for a vast range of real time embedded systems that capture and load still images or motion video data. It is best suited for systems that store multimedia data or magnify and display it on higher resolution systems.

Some of the applications are listed below:

• Flat Panel Displays / Laptops / HDTV
• Mobile / Smart Phones
• Consumer electronics; Blu-ray
• Industrial equipment / Video Surveillance Systems

Flat Panel Displays

With the popularity of HD 1080p with customers and the success of high resolution Flat Panel Displays in Laptops, LCD Monitors and HDTV’s and the expectation that all content displayed will also be HD has resulted in a huge push to market for display manufacturers to add Super Resolution functionality up-scaling low resolution sources to 1080p.

The Avieon’s Super Resolution Video & Image Signal Processor IP offer an ideal solution as it can be easily added to any existing architecture or design.

Avieon IP can be leveraged by foundries as our IP easily integrates as building blocks with their customers solutions, or by manufacturer of display modules, or by manufacturers of Graphics controllers as well as Microcontrollers.

Mobile / Smart Phones

Similarly the popularity of Mobile devices and Smart Phones with displays has resulted in manufacturers looking to differentiate them selves from the competition by offering high resolution displays, however the challenge faced are tremendous as the power consumption and real estate on the portable devices is at a premium. Avieon’s Super Resolution IP offers the ideal solution for mobile device manufacturers as our solution is focused on providing the optimumal balance of performance, power consumption, and cost.

YouTube viewing on the go has all mobile phone manufacturers looking to add higher resolution displays, however there is a “resolution gap” in the YouTube content and the current capabilities of the displays. It is not sufficient to offer the HD display without video post processing capabilities of Avieon’s Super Resolution IP to enhance low resolution content to sharp, crisp, high resolution viewing experience.

Consumer Electronics

Manufacturers of Blu-ray disc players, and set-top boxes are facing similar challanges. The popularity of HDTV has resulted in manufacturers looking to differentiate themselves from the competetion by offering systems that fully utilize the capabilities of the High Definition displays.

However the “The Resolution Gap” exists between the existing content that was developed for Analog TV’s and VCR and content which is still being captured by users on low end equipment multi-purpose mobile devices. Avieon’s Super Resolution IP allows the manufacturers of consumer electronics to add our IP to their next generation designs to enhance the display of low-resolution content as sharp, crisp, high-resolution viewing experience.

Video Surveillance Systems

The new breed of surveillance systems use IP-based networking in combination with advanced codecs and video analytics to improve situational awareness, manage business processes, and handle increasing amounts of storage and bandwidth. This drives ever higher computational demands, with analytics deployed at the edge and/or backend, integrated with content-adaptive compression and improved event management such as video search indexing. This increasing diversity poses a challenge to systems designers.

Traditional DSPs or processors can't keep up with the performance requirements, and fixed-function ASICs can't keep up either, due to their limited flexibility to support new feature demands and the new wave of analytics.

Avieon’s Super Resolution IP based solution is architected for easy integration with current systems, offering highest levels of resolution and ultra low-power consumption, offering the industry’s only complete programmable multimedia solution, offering licensees with full flexibility and differentiation capabilities. The most critical element of a surveillance system is the resolution of images captured.

The surveillance system developers and integrators are always challanged by the availability and cost of bandwidth required to support a reasonalble image quality, Avieon’s solution allows the manufacturers of current generation video surveillance systems to offer Super Resolution Images without a forklift upgrade to their system design. Since Avieon’s solution is based on video post processing it does not require changes in the video surveillance infracture just the video display system can be upgraded to offer sharp and clear images.
