Today’s expansive range of embedded vision, industrial automation, advanced driver assisted systems (ADAS), and streaming/encoding applications can benefit from a platform enabling high-performance processing and flexible hardware customization for quick application prototyping and reliable system integration.

NUREMBERG, Germany -- AMD announced the expansion of the AMD Versal™ adaptive system on chip (SoC) portfolio with the new Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 and Versal Prime Series Gen 2 adaptive SoCs designed to combine preprocessing, AI inference, and postprocessing on a single device for end-to-end acceleration of AI-driven embedded systems.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Wayne Lyons, AMD’s Automotive Senior Director, provides an update on AMD’s automotive business, trends, and vision for the future. Wayne also dives into the company’s recent advancements in automotive processors like the Versal AI Edge Series, and their success with companies deploying their solution, like Subaru.

Various applications today rely on advanced and efficient video processing infrastructure capable of simultaneously managing multiple high-density and ultra-low latency video streams. 

AMD has introduced the Ryzen™ Embedded 8000 Series processors, the first AMD embedded devices to combine NPUs based on the AMD XDNA™ architecture with traditional CPU and GPU elements, optimized for workload versatility and adaptability targeting industrial AI applications.

Embedded and edge computing designs can often benefit from out-of-the-box hardware solutions that eliminate the need for extra components like FPGAs but can still support safety-critical and high-performance applications like smart city and smart factory applications.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., -- AMD announced the launch of AMD Embedded+, a new architectural solution that combines AMD Ryzen™ Embedded processors with Versal™ adaptive SoCs onto a single integrated board to help ODM customers reduce qualification and build times by eliminating the need to expend additional hardware and R&D resources.
