At Macnica Mpression booth at ET2015, the Altera Cyclone® V ST SoC-equipped evaluation board "Mpression Sodia", which was released in a press release on the 17th, will be used to synthesize SDI camera images and SD videos onto an LVDS board @1024x768 (XGA) screen. We demonstrated the output. This page provides an overview of the demo.

Demo overview

The SDI camera input is input to Sodia, the video in the SD card is decoded by the Cyclone V SoC, and both videos are combined on the screen and output to DVI. Together, Linux runs on the Cyclone V SoC and Xwindow runs on the LVDS panel. Animated images are output to DVI under Xwindow control (using keyboard and mouse).

What is Sodia?

The Sodia board is an evaluation board featuring Altera's ARM-based Cyclone V ST SoC FPGA, providing a platform for hardware and software developers to rapidly develop embedded system designs in an environment close to real-world applications. The Sodia board is a higher model of the Helio (Cyclone V SoC starter kit), inherits most of Helio's HPS peripheral functions, and has software compatibility, making it ideal for users considering expansion from the Helio board. .
