Phase-Detection Autofocus Delivers Fast and Superior Object Detection and Recognition for 4K Video Security and Surveillance Applications<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>TOKYO, Japan \u2015\u00a0<\/strong>Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today introduced an ultra-high-definition (UHD) surveillance camera reference design to address today\u2019s high-accuracy object detection and recognition needs for video security and surveillance systems. Developed in collaboration with\u00a0Novatek Microelectronics Corporation\u00a0and designed by\u00a0Systemtec Corporation Ltd, the reference design includes a camera image sensor (CIS) board with phase-detection autofocus (PDAF), and a high-performance image signal processing (ISP) board along with auto focus zoom lens software.<\/p>\n

The surveillance camera reference design enables 4K resolution, excellent color imaging and better recognition accuracy of objects, including small objects in low-light conditions. Its impressive high-speed autofocus operation can also be realized with low-priced lenses. This features combination allows Systemtec to offer customers a high-performance 4K video security camera reference design and software that helps shorten their development time building a camera system with fast autofocus and enhanced imaging performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn ever-increasing demand for security and surveillance camera systems drives the need for better object detection and recognition capabilities with higher imaging accuracy,\u201d\u00a0said DK Singh, Director, Systems and Solutions Team at Renesas<\/strong>. \u201cOur surveillance camera with 4K resolution and PDAF function can deliver much faster autofocus results compared with conventional contrast-detection autofocus. We are excited that our close collaboration with Novatek and Systemtec makes this surveillance system reference design more accessible for customers worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n

Built around Renesas\u2019 high performance\u00a0RAA462113FYL\u00a0CMOS image sensor and Novatek\u2019s dual core SoC image signal processor, the surveillance camera reference design uses several other Renesas ICs that address its signal chain electrical functions. The CIS board includes the RAA462113FYL, DC\/DC buck converters, LDOs, motor driver and lens. The ISP board features the SoC and associated signal chain components.<\/p>\n
