e-con Systems Inc., a leading embedded design services company specializing in development of advanced customized camera solutions, related products and services extended its 5MP High definition (HD) camera solutions for Sitara (AM3703,AM3715)/DaVinci (DM3725, DM3730) processors from Texas Instruments. The company feels that the daughter card will be helpful for customers who are targeting applications such as OCR, HD Video recording @30fps, Facial Recognition and other applications that would involve higher frame rates to be received and processed by the host processor.

“The Sitara/DaVinci offers 50% more ARM power and 40% more DSP power. It is also highly power efficient compared to its predecessors. This product will definitely speed up the time to market for those customers who are interested in integrating camera with the AM3715 or the DM3730. In addition to the driver support, e-con provides camera tuning services, performance optimization services, custom sensor support services on top of OSes like Windows Embedded Compact 7.0 and Android”, Said Ashok Babu, President e-con Systems.
