DEMOS: The following cutting-edge demonstrations will be at Booth 1314,
to show the latest developments in video/imaging, control,
embedded software, DSP, analog and other solutions from Texas
Instruments and TI's third party network.
-- World's Fastest DSP - 720 MHz DSP
Witness this record-breaking performance as the TMS320C6416
DSP runs video/imaging algorithms at 720 MHz to achieve
increased multi-channel density, multi-function flexibility
and bandwidth for higher frame rates and better resolution.
-- To celebrate their Guinness World Record achievement, TI
will also be hosting a Guinness Beer Reception on
Wednesday, April 23 from 6:00 - 7:00 p.m.
-- Innovative Human Transportation by Segway
The innovative Segway Human Transporter (HT) -- a two-
wheeled, self-balancing personal transportation system will
also be demonstrated at TI's booth. The Segway HT is made
possible by TI's TMS320C2000(TM) DSPs.
-- Power Management and Analysis Tools
Demonstrated with TI's robust, low-cost TMS320C5510 DSP
Starter Kit (DSK), the Power Analyzer and target-side Power
Scaling Libraries enable developers to identify power-
intensive "hot spots" in the code and manage the power-
efficiency of applications.
-- Stepper Motors with Servo Motor-like Performance
This Kruse Control demonstration, by d3 engineering and
based on TI's C2000(TM) DSPs, features a closed loop, high-
performance motion control approach that allows a stepper
motor to behave and perform with the characteristics of a
servo motor.
-- MSP430: The Outrageously Low-Power MCU
The MSP430 section of the Texas Instruments booth will
feature multiple demonstrations, including an ultra-low-
power, microcontroller-run Pong! Game; an ordinary Apple
will power an MSP430 demo board and a demo board will show
the newest features of Flash voice recorder.
-- New Code Composer Studio(TM) v2.2 Development Tools
See a demonstration of TI's latest software and tool
developments, including the real-time foundation provided
by TI's DSP/BIOS(TM) kernel, RTDX and TI's new simulation
capabilities.
-- Experience the Difference with the Dual-Core OMAP5910
Processor
Live demonstrations will show the ARM9 generating video
test patterns while the C55x(TM) DSP simultaneously
performs MPEG-4 video/decode. The demonstration also will
show the interprocessor communication mechanism that
eliminates the need for developers to program the RISC and
DSP independently and the dual-debugging environment on a
high-level operating system.
-- C55x Personal Media Development Kit for Portable, Handheld
Applications
The PMDK is a complete development environment that
consists of an LCD and camera daughter card on top of the
TMS320C5509 Evaluation Module (EVM). We invite you to
learn more about this development kit through a live
demonstration, which shows the TMS320C5509 DSP performing
MPEG-4 video encode/decode.
-- Audio and Video in Real-Time on TI's TMS320C64x(TM) DSPs
ATEME will be showing several demos at TI's booth to
demonstrate the features for MPEG4 streaming applications,
such as ASP profiling in real-time, encoding and decoding
with post-processing tools as well as encoding and decoding
TCP/IP streaming with on screen display (overlay).
-- Simultaneous encode and decode of video
This demo will showcase the power of TI's C64x(TM) DSP
processor to perform full resolution simultaneous encode
and decode on a single processor. This enables a new breed
of applications with a single chip that encompasses
security applications such as DVRs, surveillance cameras,
PVRs and video streaming/conferencing.
-- Multimedia Performance and Quality
Ingenient's MP4900-BRD-C6415 board will demonstrate Quality
D1 Resolution on a single processor such as MPEG-4 ASP with
MPEG-4 AAC encode and decode, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 with MPEG-4
AAC Decode and MPEG-2 with mp3 Decode. Also on display
will be Ingenient's MP4900-BRD-DM270 with MPEG-4 SP with
mp3, WMV with WMA and JPEG, G.726.
-- JPEG2000 Encoder on TI's C6000(TM) DSP Platform
The highly optimized Aware Motion JPEG2000 encoder
demonstrates the compresses each frame of a video stream,
which is transferred over the PCI bus and decoded using the
Aware JPEG2000 Software Decoder Library on the host PC.
Viewers are then able to compare the decompressed video
sequence displayed side by side with the original video.
-- Enhanced Professional Audio Capabilities
Showcasing TI's TMS320C6713 floating-point DSP and CCStudio
v2.2 support of professional audio applications, this
demonstration has a digital amplifier range up to 100W of
power, at levels of efficiency unseen in analog
amplification. The algorithms enhance the application's
delay, graphic equalizer and chorus abilities, while
developers focus on the sound of their algorithm, instead
of each line of code.
