SK-TDA4VM: Need a board to handle 360 Ai camera

Anand Sethu

Part Number: SK-TDA4VM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TDA4VM, , SK-AM69, SK-AM68

Tool/software:

We need to know that whether the TDA4VM can handle 360 AI camera and a fatigue detection camera. We are trying to build a infotainment system.

We were checking with the SK-TDA4VM starter kit https://www.ti.com/tool/SK-TDA4VM, whether this can do the same or else please give the right solution for this.

Hi Anand,

Could you share more details about these cameras? The sensors currently supported out of box are uvc usb cameras, imx219, imx390 and ov5640.

Thank you,

Hi Fabiana

We are trying to build an infortainment system with 360camera and one fatigue detection camera. We are yet to decide which camera to be used, probably the design will be for 5MP x 5 cameras. The infortainment system should be having the capability to run RTOS and Android/Linux(Yocto).

Future ADAS also has to be implemented.

Please suggest me a development kit which can be used for this purpose.

Regards

Hi Anand,

I would not recommend any of the starter kit devices (sk-tda4vm, sk-am68, sk-am69, etc.) as these devices do not support RTOS.

Will these cameras need to be connected via UVC USB, CSI header (ribbon cable), CSI Samtec connector? What is the fps requirement? If the project requires 5 cameras to be connected at once, you will need a fusion board, either Fusion 1 Rev C or Fusion 2. The devices that support RTOS + Linux with Fusion 1/2 are J721E/J721S2/J722S/J742S2/J784S4 EVMs. Please go through the FAQ linked below to learn more about these fusion boards, the sensors that are supported out-of-box, compatible devices and more.

[FAQ] AM67A: Enabling CSI2 sensors via fusion board on AM6x - Processors forum - Processors - TI E2E support forums

Let me know if anything in the FAQ is unclear or if you have any follow up questions.

Thank you,

Fabiana
