Summary

This application note describes, implements, and benchmarks a reference design for driver and occupancy monitoring systems using RGB-IR image sensors with the AM62A processor. An OX05B1S camera module is used to create RGB and Infrared vision processing pipelines that leverage hardware accelerates on AM62A for this 5 Megapixel use case. We explore the fundamental components of a representative OMS/DMS pipeline and measure utilization and latency across said pipelines in GStreamer and TI OpenVX.
