Verisilicon unveils super resolution technology for smart display devices

     Verisilicon has announced the launch of the Super resolution IP SR2000. The IP enables the low resolution video source to display at the terminal with high image quality and resolution, while reducing the network bandwidth occupied by image transmission. It can be widely used in many fields such as consumer electronics, data center, security monitoring and medical health.

     The SR2000 is designed to enable a high-quality super resolution solution with a small chip area and low power consumption, supporting 4K and 8K super resolution video output and providing clear and smooth detail enhancement. In addition, the SR2000 is capable of detail enhancement while maintaining color and saturation. When combined with AI technology, the IP also provides controllable performance enhancements to achieve desirable visual displays.

     The SR2000 can be integrated with Verisilicon's existing pixel processing solutions to provide superior processing in the cloud and at the terminal. For  example, the seamless integration of the SR2000 IP and IP DC9000, the display processor of the core, provides enhanced display effect and achieves 4K/8K HDR display, improving user experience. The SR2000 can also be integrated with the core's image signal processor (ISP) IP and video processor (VPU) IP to improve image quality during image signal processing and video coding, enabling users to obtain clearer display effects when enlarging images.

     "Applications such as video conferencing, cloud gaming and cloud desktop are driving the rapid growth of cloud computing. Our super resolution technology optimizes display and transmission efficiency from cloud to terminal as a whole. "Specifically, the use of super resolution technology in smart display devices delivers excellent image quality at the end and significantly reduces the required transmission bandwidth between the cloud and the end." "Verisilicon offers a complete portfolio of smart pixel processing IP from camera input to display output (Glass-to-Glass)," said Weijin Dai, Executive Vice President and general manager of Verisilicon's IP Business unit. The new SR2000 IP, based on silicon-proven super resolution technology, will further enrich the company's smart pixel solutions."
