At this year's CES 2018, Rockchip announced a number of one-time black technology, including AI chips and platforms, the first Android Things ™ Turnkey modules.
The first AI chip RK3399Pro: NPU performance up to 2.4TOPs!
First of all, on the eve of the CES 2018 CES, Rockwell Micro announced that it will officially launch its world's first powerful AI processor RK3399Pro with an on-chip NPU (Neural Network Processor) computing performance of up to 2.4TOPs with high performance , Low power consumption, ease of development and other advantages, and Rockchip Wei AI artificial intelligence field to provide one-stop Turnkey solutions.
According to the official introduction, RK3399Pro is the first AI chip designed with CPU + GPU + NPU hardware structure and its integrated NPU (neural network processor) integrates many years of experience of Rockchip in machine vision, speech processing, deep learning, etc. Compared with traditional Chip, the typical depth of the neural network Inception V3, ResNet34, VGG16 and other models in the RK3399Pro chip performance outstanding performance, nearly a hundred times to enhance.

'AI artificial intelligence era has come, as China's global chip factory, we AI artificial intelligence layout for many years, this release of the RK3399Pro is Rockchip's first integrated AI hardware processor, the platform can be mass-produced commercial fast.' Chen Feng, vice president of Rockchip Global Micro, said: 'Up to 2.4TOPs performance, with low power consumption and rich interface, ideal for intelligent driving, image recognition, security monitoring, UAV, voice recognition and other AI applications.
In addition to specialized AI functions, RK3399Pro also has super general-purpose computing performance, which uses big.LITTLE size nuclear CPU architecture, dual-core Cortex-A72 + quad-core Cortex-A53, in terms of overall performance, power consumption with technology leadership; High-end nuclear ARM Mali-T860 ARM, more bandwidth compression technology integrated, the overall performance is excellent.
In expansion capability, RK3399Pro is more powerful, such as: support dual TypeC interface; double ISP, single channel maximum support 13 million pixels; support 4096x2160 display output and other functions; support for 8 digital microphone array input. Software, supports many API (application Development Interface), including OpenGL ES 1.x / 2.x / 3.1 / 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 1.1 / 1.2, RenderScript and more.
Launched the first Android Things ™ Turnkey module
Re-appearance is the first module with Google's official certification of intelligent voice assistant program, the module uses RK3229 processor, based on Google Android Things ™ system, integrated Cast & Assistant function, Turnkey hardware and software solutions will help Google Assistant Product popularity in the field of IoT.
It is reported that, RK3229 SOM module consists of six parts: RK3229 main control chip, power management chip, DDR3 / 3L, eMMC, Wi-Fi / BT and built-in fuel gauge, it is learned that the platform can take the lead in supporting both built- R & D and production of smart IoT products, such as smart voice speakers, cameras, gateways and home appliances, etc., by RK3229SOM modules worldwide by developers and OEM / ODM vendors.
SOM based on RK3229 chip processor has 6 major platform advantages:
1, is a GVA (GoogleVoice Assistant) development module certified by Google with high cost performance, which enables fast mass production and shortened development cycle.
2, based on Android Things operating system, manufacturers and developers can access Turnkey hardware, software, platform guidance, which will benefit product development and innovation.
3, the module has pre-certified Cast and Assistant functions, which can greatly reduce development progress and improve stability
4, the module built-in integrated software DSP, EQ / DRC audio support, relative hardware support easier to develop and customize
5, the module based on Android Things, for product safety and reliability to provide strong support, and the hardware supporting APP through Google's safety standards certification.
6, through the Google OTA upgrade service, greatly improve product updates and cost savings.
Rockchip and Google's Android Things RK3229 SOM module cooperation, with more convenient development mode and production progress, but also help to enhance the use of smart products experience, accelerate the popularity of smart applications.
Yuntianli fly carrying Rockchwein AI platform debut
In addition to the AI chip, Yuntianliufei will carry the DEEPEYE120 portrayal embedded engine (IFBOXV3 front-end intelligent computing unit) carrying the RK3288 + RK1608 at 2018 CES.
DEEPEYE120 products using RK3288 + RK1608 embedded engine platform design, the ARM + multiVision DSP hardware architecture, according to the actual scene needs of the hardware solutions for flexible modular tailoring customization, to provide super excellent cost-effective solution.
DEEPEYE120 Portrait Recognition Embedded Engine is a small frontend computing unit developed by SkyTeam to solve the complex computing needs of the public security system. It was debuted at Shenzhen Anbo on October 30, 2017, and the price is much lower than similar products in the market , And powerful performance: low latency, high performance, chip-level energy consumption.Can support up to 50+ people per second face capture, 15 to 18 face features extraction; high storage capacity; built-in first-class depth of learning face recognition algorithm.
DEEPEYE120 can support the traditional camera of the old and intelligent transformation, to support the development of various types of hardware products secondary development, such as police control / face access control / face gate / binocular (RGB + infrared) living access / police capacity mirror / Robots, etc. In the 2018CES show, DEEPEYE120's IFaceEngine® embedded portrait recognition engine solution will show mobile face recognition mobile control; small cloud manager smart system developed for industrial parks, residential areas, buildings, exhibition areas, companies and other scenarios Will also be fully demonstrated.
Yuntianlai DEEPEYE120 portrait recognition embedded engine for a large number of intelligent security needs of the scene to provide a more lightweight and more intelligent computing device.The DEEPEYE120 portrait recognition embedded engine will be the first overseas demo mining and rich AI It is reported that Yuntian Li Fei will launch a variety of convenient, sophisticated and powerful smart devices, through the world's first independent intellectual property rights machine to learn in 2018, the area of security and livelihood Take to the new stage and height.
