Thanks rayz, good pick up and post, the Renesas chip...

Thanks rayz, good pick up and post, the Renesas chip announcement was Dec 2022 so i guess we could expect news on their destination in due course. Renesas would have taped these chips in relation to customer needs.

The Renesas R-Car V3H SoC, which incorporates BrainChip’s Akida IP, is optimized for a variety of automotive applications. Here are some key uses:

1. Driver and Occupant Monitoring Systems (DMS/OMS): Enhances safety by monitoring driver attention and detecting occupant presence¹.
2. Automotive Front Cameras: Supports advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) by processing data from front-facing cameras for tasks like lane-keeping and collision avoidance².
3. Surround View Systems: Provides a 360-degree view around the vehicle, aiding in parking and low-speed maneuvering¹.
4. Auto Parking: Facilitates automated parking solutions, making parking easier and safer¹.
5. Smart Camera Applications: Utilizes deep learning for various smart camera functionalities, improving overall vehicle safety and performance³.

These applications leverage the high-performance deep learning capabilities and low power consumption of the R-Car V3H, making it a robust solution for modern automotive needs.
Apart from the above vehicle related uses the Renesas R-Car V3H SoC can also be used for Industrial applications, Robotics etc.
