GoPro Hero7: Inside is the Qualcomm Vision Intelligence
GoPro Hero7 White and Hero7 Silver conceal a lot of technology inside them thanks to Qualcomm. Qualcomm Vision Intelligence is the platform that allows GoPro action cameras to have cutting-edge performance. Here’s what you need to know.
The GoPro Hero7 Silver and GoPro Hero7 White action cams are two of the models recently announced by the manufacturer. But there is also a technological ” heart ” based on Qualcomm technology. As announced during these hours during the Qualcomm Summit in Hong Kong, these two models take advantage of the Qualcomm Vision Intelligence platform: this is what it entails!
The new Qualcomm Vision Intelligence platform is a reality in which hardware and software work in unison to combine performance and long range, reducing consumption. In particular, the Vision Intelligence 100 and Vision Intelligence 200 solutions are used, the White and Silver versions.
The system is based on a SoC APQ8053, with CPU, GPU and DSP optimized to have a processing capacity suitable to provide quality images while reducing consumption. Thanks to the integration of several components related to audio, power management and connectivity, complete products can be created, reducing production and sales costs.
For OEM like GoPro, it is also possible to focus on customized ad hoc algorithms so as to differentiate themselves from the competition, while still relying on Qualcomm Vision Intelligence.
Always talking about the characteristics of the platform, the processors can have a structure up to eight Cortex-A53 cores with a frequency that can vary between 1.8 GHz and 2.2 GHz, integrate a Qualcomm Hexagon 546 DSP and an Adreno 506 GPU.
This performance potential of Qualcomm Vision Intelligence allows you to record videos at 4K and 30 fps or capture photographs with a resolution of 10 MPixel, as well as performing tasks through voice activation, supporting 14 languages.
Integrated processors also help with EIS or Slo-Mo videos by providing users with a complete product. The integrated connectivity in the platform allows the action cameras to support Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth + LE 4.x for sharing the recorded contents.
