UltraSoC embedded analytics selected by ELVEES for video, security and safety applications across ARM and MIPS platforms

November 2017 by Marc Jacob

UltraSoC announced that ELVEES
has licensed UltraSoC’s embedded analytics technology for use in its
next-generation video processing offerings. The new ELVEES system on chip (SoC)
product will provide advanced capabilities for a broad range of applications, from
automotive safety and ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems), to facial
recognition, augmented/virtual reality and vision based IoT systems.

This is the second time that ELVEES, a leading provider of world-class semiconductor
products with heterogeneous multicore SoC architectures for video analytics, has
chosen to include UltraSoC in one of its systems-on-chip (SoCs) – now opting to
use UltraSoC for designs using both MIPS and ARM processor architectures.

UltraSoC’s embedded analytics will help to ensure maximum performance and
reliability of the ELVEES custom low-power ASIC for IP-cameras. This latest ELVEES
ASIC design is a next-generation multi-platform multi-core SoC that enables the
development of a new generation of IP cameras with video analysis (CV - computer
vision) and a wide range of OEM modules, applicable across a broad spectrum of
devices including robotics with AI (artificial intelligence).

Given the demanding applications and the use of a complex heterogeneous multi-core
SoC architecture, ELVEES’ requirements went far beyond the capabilities of
traditional vendor-specific debug architectures such as ARM CoreSight. UltraSoC was
selected for the benefits it brings in terms of faster time-to-market and reduced
risk; as well as the potential to use embedded intelligent analytics to ensure
optimized performance throughout the product lifecycle – even after the chip is
designed into an end product.

ELVEES, founded in 1991, is based in Moscow. UltraSoC announced in June it was
expanding its presence in Russia, via a strategic partnership with Nautech, one of
the region’s leading technical representatives. Nautech has played a key role in
securing this second collaboration between UltraSoC and ELVEES.

“UltraSoC’s universal debug, monitoring and analytics platform provides support
for all processor architectures, making the company an ideal partner for embedding
into our custom video processing technology,” said ELVEES General Director, Prof.
Jaroslav Petrichkovich. “The applications we support are, without exception,
extremely demanding. It’s therefore critical we work with technology partners who
understand the importance of speed, performance, reliability and system
availability. We value UltraSoC’s technology in giving us insight into these
factors at the deepest level, embedding monitoring and analysis into our devices. We
don’t compromise on our technology choices – it’s what our customers expect of
ELVEES. UltraSoC continues to be perfectly aligned with our objectives and our
customers’ needs.”

UltraSoC CEO, Rupert Baines, said: “ELVEES’ products bring powerful video
processing capabilities to very demanding security and safety applications. UltraSoC
is delighted to strengthen its relationship with ELVEES, and to have the opportunity
to be part of a mission critical application.”

Andrei Greben, Nautech CEO, commented: “Following the formation of our partnership
with UltraSoC, we are delighted to now be actively involved in supporting them in
projects in Russia. ELVEES empowers some extreme mission-critical security
applications and UltraSoC is a perfect fit. We are proud to be involved in this and
to help deliver the benefits of UltraSoC’s embedded analytics to customers in
Russia and beyond.”

The heterogeneous multi-core processor architecture at the heart of ELVEES’
powerful solutions, combined with UltraSoC’s toolbox of silicon IP, allows SoCs to
monitor and analyze system behavior in real-time and under real operating
conditions. By embedding UltraSoC, these capabilities enable identification of
unexpected behavior and can provide hardware-based protection against malicious
attacks and malfunctions. ELVEES now uses both ARM and MIPS architectures for its
designs, and chose to use UltraSoC to provide the necessary embedded analysis across
both MIPS and ARM platforms.

UltraSoC’s embedded semiconductor IP simplifies development of such complex and
powerful devices – even in heterogeneous multi-core systems. UltraSoC’s embedded
analytic features support developers of systems in a broad range of applications,
such as: safety and security in the automotive industry, where the move towards
autonomous vehicles is creating unprecedented change and risk; optimization in big
data applications, from search to data centers; and cybersecurity, including for the
Internet of Things.
