The company claims that this kit is designed to enable powerful computing for on-device image processing. The Finetuned Image Signal Processor (ISP) employed in this module has been optimized for the system to enhance the image output. According to the company, this ready-to-deploy kit is energy efficient which reduces the system load and also provides good thermal efficiency. The higher electrical and thermal efficiency helps in achieving a small overall form factor.

“The qSmartAI80_CUQ610 AI Vision kit marks a significant milestone as our first ever camera for Qualcomm QCS series of processors utilizing the state-of-the-art Image Signal Processor of Qualcomm processors. The qSmartAI80_CUQ610 developed in partnership with VVDN Technologies, a premier electronics engineering, and manufacturing company, is an ideal platform for our customers to develop next-generation edge-AI-enabled embedded vision applications. The embedded vision applications require consistent image quality from the cameras irrespective of challenging light conditions and customers leverage e-con’s expert IQ tuning and solutions capability to successfully launch their end products with the shortest time-to-market” said Ranjith Kumar, Senior product manager at e-con Systemsâ„¢.
