Hi,
Thanks for your response, Brad. I recalled that DM355 can run the codec engine 
on it. Is there any benchmark information which shows the processing rate of 
different codec engines in the DM355? Also, if we follow the xDM interface to 
implement our own filter, could we expect a similar performance?
Another quick question regarding of the DM6437. I just want to confirm that it 
seems like there is no ADC in the DM6437 except for the line/mic in. If so, is 
there API to get the raw ADC from the line/mic in without passing thorugh the 
AIC33 codec module?

Thanks!

Shawn

If you use the DM355 then all of your programming will be done on the ARM.  I 
imagine you will be limited in the amount of filtering you can accomplish on 
the ARM.

Subject: DM355 or DM6437

Hi,
I am new to the DaVinci but very interested in exploring the capability. There 
is an opportunity in my company for a machine vision project. However, I am 
very confused about many selections of the DaVinci series. I have read the 
online webminar as well as some materials on the DaVinci Wiki. Currently, I am 
stuck between DM355 and DM6437.

They are both cost-effective solutions. DM355 seems to be able to provide more 
user interface control because of the ARM processor; while the DM6437 can 
implement custom filters for image manipulation. I slightly stand toward DM6437 
because we have a licensed CSS 3.1. However, using the SDK provided by RidgeRun 
sounds very interesting too. My question is that if we pick DM355, could I 
still make a custom image filter or I can only use the codec provided by TI?

The current goal of the project is to build up an image stabilization module. 
The video input is an NTSC source. The module needs to compensate for the image 
motion with an external gyro input (from RS232). Also, we may want to develop 
nonlinear filter to compensate for lens distortion in the future as well. Could 
anyone give me some valuable suggestions please? Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,
Shawn
