Navigate the Future

The move to advanced next-generation interfaces has long been hamstrung by the lack of functionally safe graphics processing. Building on its rich history in the automotive market, Imagination was the first to offer graphics solutions built using processes that support functionally safe use cases, as described by ISO 26262, the safety standard for automotive electronics. Our Tile Region Protection feature enables the GPU to deliver critical driver information in a functionally safe manner, freeing up car dashboard designers to truly push the boundaries of in-car interface design.

AI, powered by neural networks, underpins both advanced driver assistance systems and the full self-driving technology that is around the corner. Our neural network accelerators have been designed not only for performance but to reduce system bandwidth; a precious commodity inside an SoC. Our Tensor Tiling technology organises tensors into groups, enabling them to be processed much more efficiently, delivering significant power and area savings.

Cars these days have ever more applications running at once – music, sat nav and even games, as well as critical information for the driver. Our HyperLane hardware virtualization technology offers total application isolation ensuring all tasks are completely robust, so all of them can be run simultaneously on the same GPU in a completely secure manner, with no loss of performance. It’s kind of genius.

The increasing sophistication of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) means vehicles are being equipped with increasing numbers of data-generating sensors and cameras. Traditional approaches to this data-rate problem are wiring-heavy and bandwidth limited. Automotive Ethernet is the ideal, cost-effective answer and our Ethernet Packet Processor (EPP) is the perfect solution to solve your networking challenges.
