Xilinx's Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC,
Equipped in Subaru's new version of vision-based ADAS
High performance, ultra-low latency support for advanced safety features


Xilinx announced on the 20th that its solution has been adopted for the new version of Subaru's vision-based Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS) EyeSight®.

The new EyeSight on the all-new Subaru Levorg features advanced safety features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning and Collision Prevention.

Manufactured in 16nm technology, Xilinx's Automotive Grade (XA) Zynq UltraScale+ Multi-Processor System-on-Chip (MPSoC) delivers the high performance, ultra-low latency, and functional safety (ASIL) capabilities required for EyeSight to implement dynamic driving scenarios and respond to abnormal situations.

“The image processing technology applied to EyeSight scans everything captured by the stereo cameras and creates a high-precision 3D point cloud, which can be used for collision avoidance at intersections and autonomous driving in highway traffic jams,” said Tetsuo Fujinuki, Subaru’s CTO. “It provides advanced features such as support,” he explained.

He added, “Xilinx’s XA-class devices have built-in features that can meet stringent ASIL requirements, so we adopted them as key components for iSight.”

Meanwhile, Xilinx has shipped 190 million devices to the global automotive industry, 75 million of which have been deployed in ADAS.
