Developing intelligent, high-performance vision systems is a lengthy and extensive process typically taking around six months. Improving time-to-market for these vision systems while optimizing engineering resources is critical to the success of these complex vision designs. To aid in the camera development process, onsemi has developed a reference module ecosystem for our image sensors called Premier Reference Image Sensor Modules (PRISM).
In this blog you will learn about the PRISM ecosystem, its benefits and how to get started with PRISM.
PRISM is a pre-optimized sub-system solution developed with onsemi's industrial and commercial image sensors. Additionally, any new sensors introduced from onsemi will include PRISM as a part of its standard deliverables. The modules, combined with hardware adapters and ecosystem partner development kits, can be used for prototyping purposes and shorten the prototype design process for faster time to market.
A typical vision system consists of many elements including optics (lens), image sensor, sensor interface, image signal processor and application software or artificial intelligent (AI). The lens and sensor need to match perfectly within a proper form factor to maintain the quality of the input image. Any slight mismatch can result in artifacts that impact the overall system performance.
Alongside the modules, onsemi provides supporting material explaining how to further develop PRISM into a mass production design. Validation reports are provided under NDA for sensor's performance baseline. A standardized interface of PRISM adaptor is also provided to connect PRISM to major AP/SoC platforms.
Figure 2 below provides a high-level outline of the PRISM ecosystem design stages.
Below, is a complete list of onsemi image sensor modules supported by the PRISM ecosystem.
