Supported hardware configurations

There are a number of supported hardware configurations and cameras for the QNX Platform for ADAS.

Supported hardware boards

The following list describes the boards that you can use with the QNX Platform for ADAS.
  • Texas Instruments Jacinto 6 EVM (referred to as simply Jacinto 6 EVM in this document) with cameras connected with FPD-Link III interfaces to a deserializer board that's connected to the Texas Instruments VAYU Vision Board (simply referred to as a Vision Board in this document). For information about this configuration, see TIDA-00162 on the Texas Instruments website.
  • Jacinto 6 EVM and a Vision Board with single camera connected with a parallel interface
  • Jacinto 6 EVM with/or without a Vision Board connected with a USB camera
  • Intel Atom C2000 Board for Network Edge, CPE, Wireless, NFV (codenamed Rangeley) can be used on any applications that don't utilize the Vision Platform (vision). This cost-effective board doesn't have a GPU, but has the required processing to run AUTOSAR Runtime Environment (experiment).

Supported cameras

The QNX Platform for ADAS supports up to eight cameras connected to the system using FPD-Link III interfaces, parallel interfaces, and USB connections. The number of cameras that you can simultaneously run at one time depends on the number of interface ports available on the hardware board and the system resources that are allocated for your system. For example, you might be able to run only six cameras because there are only six physical FPD-Link III interface ports on the deserializer board, or you might not have enough memory available on your system to run more than four file cameras simultaneously. File cameras aren't real cameras, but virtual cameras that play a video file to simulate a video stream, usually for testing purposes.

These are the supported cameras for the QNX Platform for ADAS:
  • Leopard USB cameras with Omnivision OV10635 image sensor (e.g., LI-USB30-OV10635)
  • Texas Instrument cameras with Omnivison OV10635 image sensor (e.g., OV10635-EAAE-AA0A)
