Video and Vision Processing Suite

Clocked Video Input (CVI) and Clocked Video Output (CVO)

The Clocked Video Interface IPs convert clocked video formats (such as BT656, BT1120, and DVI) to AXI4-Streaming video; and vice versa.

Full-Raster to Clocked Video Converter

Remaps pixel data and video timing information from Intel FPGA streaming full-raster protocol to clocked video format.

Clocked Video to Full-Raster Converter

Remaps pixel data and video timing information from clocked video format to Intel FPGA streaming full-raster protocol.

Full-Raster to Streaming Converter

Provides a seamless conversion between Intel FPGA streaming full-raster and Intel FPGA streaming video lite protocols.

Video Broadcaster

Broadcasts a single input video bus (in multiple formats) to multiple destinations.

Video Crosspoint

Routes discrete signals around an FPGA design under software control. An M inputs to N outputs data crosspoint for single bit signals.

Genlock Router / Profiler

Multi-channel genlock strobe extractor and router. This IP allows passing genlock timing signals to internal or external FPGA multi-rate video clock generators, to facilitate video input and output clock genlock and/or frame synchronization, based on video timing markers derived from video connectivity IP.

Video Timing Generator

Generates real-time video timing signals according to Full-Raster or Clocked Video standards.

Test Pattern Generator

Generates a video stream that contains a test pattern.

Clipper

Crops an active area from a video stream and discards the remainder.

3D LUT

Provides an efficient solution for video color space and dynamic range conversions, chroma-keying, and the creation of artistic effects.

Warp

Applies geometric corrections and arbitrary non-linear distortions to a real-time video stream.

Tone Mapping Operator

Corrects poorly exposed images and video to reveal invisible details.

Scaler

Resizes input video stream to produce output of a different height and or width.

2D FIR Filter

Implements a 3x3, 5x5, or 7x7 finite impulse response (FIR) filter on an image data stream to smooth or sharpen images.

Switch

Allows video streams to be switched in real time.

Mixer

Allows you to overlay video fields from multiple inputs on each other, either with or without alpha blending (transparency). Mixer is used for implementing text overlay and picture-in-picture mixing.

Chroma Resampler

Converts between the different chroma sampling formats available in the YCbCr color space, for example from 4:2:2 to 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 to 4:2:0.

Color Space Converter

Converts video data between color spaces such as RGB to YCbCr.

Video Frame Buffer

Buffers video frames into external RAM. This IP supports double or triple-buffering with a range of options for frame dropping and repeating.

Protocol Converter

Converts between three interface protocols: Avalon streaming video, Intel FPGA streaming video lite variant and Intel FPGA streaming video full variant.

Pixels in Parallel Converter

Allows multiple pixels to be transmitted in a single clock cycle (beat). Converts from one value of pixels in parallel at the input interface to a higher or lower number of pixels in parallel at the output interface.

Guard Bands

Compares each color plane in the input video stream to upper and lower guard bands values. It replaces the pixel value falling outside of the guard bands by the respective guard band values.

Video Streaming FIFO

Provides a FIFO buffer storage solution with input and output interfaces compliant to the Intel FPGA streaming video protocol.

Deinterlacer

Converts interlaced video formats to progressive video format using a deinterlacing algorithm. Currently only supports "bob" algorithm ("weave," low-angle edge detection, 3:2 cadence detection and motion adaptive to be added in future).

Frame Cleaner

Removes and repairs the non-ideal sequences and error cases present in the incoming data stream to produce an output stream that complies with the implicit ideal use model.

Color Plane Sequencer

Changes how color plane samples are transmitted across the Intel FPGA video streaming protocol. This function can be used to split and join video streams, giving control over the routing of color plane samples.

Gamma Corrector

Allows video streams to be corrected for the physical properties of display devices.

Interlacer

Converts progressive video to interlaced video by dropping half the lines of incoming progressive frames.
