Seeking Some Special Roadtesters for the UltraZed-EV

rscasny
rscasny over 5 years ago

I am considering to roadtest the UltraZed-EV board. The UltraZed-EV is a highly flexible, rugged, System-On-Module based on the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC. It's ideal for embedded video processing system development.image

 

In order to roadtest this board, I've discussed with the sponsor what kind of roadtester he needs and any specific requirements as well. Out of those discussions, I've come to the conclusion I need a special roadtester -- someone who has video experience and has the ability to write a quality technical report.

 

Specifically, these are the things the sponsor is looking for in a roadtester:

 

  1. Video Centric (preference to designs using interfaces without an Avnet reference design)
  2. External pieces (Video/PCIe/SATA/SFP+/etc.) should be COTS and readily available
  3. Utilize VCU (optional)
  4. Prefer staying within bounds of VCU TRD (see point 1)
  5. Have fun, show something exciting and new! (AI/ML?)

 

If you are interested and have these requirements, please leave a comment and I'll get back to you. Or, you can message me at rscasny

 

 

(BTW: If you are new to roadtesting, and are selected, you would receive the UltraZed-EV at no charge to you. I'll give you more info later.)

 

Sincerely,

 

Randall Scasny

    Not just Zynq experience, but extensive video processing on Zynq experience. I've some road test experience with Zynq and dabbled in the video side with the Zybo Z7, but definitely couldn't do this board…

    The FPGA and its carrier board are pretty amazing, but I suspect that unless anyone has already experience with the technology, it may require quite a bit of effort to learn how to properly use it.

    I would be interested in testing this board.It looks feature packed. I would port PYNQ to this board if it's not already. I ported PYNQ to the ZC702: Porting PYQN to ZC702 I have posted a couple of similar…

    the board video processing capability (like 4k decode/encode) is very impressive but i think it requires knowledge deeper than what i have right now. I am pretty much at higher application level, at most streaming RTSP on .Net Core (even that kills weeks of my time)

    Having said that i done some level of zynq based HDMI encode and decode with ZC702 via Avnet HDMI daughter card and HDMI encode & decode on ultra96 . the former is pure bitstream provided by Avnet approach and the latter is the much simpler PYNQ.

    i am delighted to follow this thread to see how this board can be reviewed image  properly

    Hi there,

     

    Thanks for posting, fee free to share it around!  This is the first time we've tried to road test such a board and I hope there will be success!  The more interest, the better the response for future road tests!

    Yes, i am happy to share it around with some of my friends who uses FPGA.  I am wondering if this board will have some module with software like MATLAB. In the past i have used ZC702 with AES-FMC-HDMI-CAM-G HDMI input/output fmc module, however, i use it via MATLAB approach https://www.mathworks.com/help/supportpkg/xilinxzynqbasedvision/examples/developing-vision-algorithms-for-zynq-based-har… , while there it is possible to develop Ultrazed support as custom target it will be a tremendous job.
