AMDs AI processing at the Edge for Canon Free Viewpoint Video System to transform live sports broadcasts
Summary
Versal AI Core devices deliver powerful machine learning (ML)-based video processing at the edge for Canon camera systems. “This single-chip Versal solution allows our system to do more in real-time than we ever envisioned possible,” said Masanori Yamada, Senior Managing Executive Officer, Head of Imaging Group, Canon. “Versal AI Core’s powerful edge-processing capabilities enable our system to handle multiple functions simultaneously so broadcasters can deliver new and immersive viewing experiences.” The high performance and ultra-low latency processing enabled by Versal AI Core series significantly shortens image processing time, allowing live replays to be produced in near real-time, compared to several minutes with traditional architectures. “The implementation of machine learning at the edge during a live broadcast is an exciting first in the industry,” said Yousef Khalilollahi, Vice President, Asia Pacific, at AMD. At the heart of Canon’s cutting-edge systems is the Versal AI Core series delivering the low latency edge-processing that is key to heralding this new era in live sports broadcasts.”
