My x15 has an AM5729 on it and it has 2 DSPs and 4 EVEs[1] (Embedded Vision Engines). I don't know much about the EVEs, but I read somewhere that each EVE can do 16 multiply accumulates per clock cycle. The tidl gives you some control over which processors (DSP or EVE) works on what part of the problem.
I'm often seeing 15 to 30 frames per second wile recognizing objects. --Mark [1] http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EVE On Thursday, January 10, 2019 at 4:40:06 PM UTC-5, Calvin Slater wrote: > > That's fantastic! > > I was just wondering about this a couple weeks ago. > > I heard the AM5728 had TIDL support this whole time and uses the DSPs > right? > > > > On Wednesday, 9 January 2019 18:08:28 UTC-8, Mark A.
