What is DaVinci Technology?

Texas Instruments DaVinci Technology is a new software technology that has combined software, hardware, and development tools to form a digital signal processing (DSP) system that enhances digital multimedia.

Why was it developed?

To eliminate CODEC errors between different processors. To bring digital video to the component level, enabling developers to introduce digital video to an application without requiring developers to program a single line of DSP code.

Why not FPGAs or ASICs?

FPGAs require more Power and are not compact. ASICs fails to achieve best quality under wide range of operating conditions and limits their ability to adapt to multiple applications. Development time required and time is more.

Contourlet Xform for Image Fusion

It is a multi-scale and multidirectional,two dimensional transform. It is a combination of Laplacian pyramid and directional filter bank. Image Fusion:Image C = Inv C (C(Image A) +C(Image B))

Experimental Results and Analysis:

Program of contourlet-based image fusion consumes 8 seconds only on DaVinci platform instead of 67 seconds on ARM core. Loop of Convolution operation 1000 times requires 46 sec while it takes 1698 sec on ARM.
