i.MX 8M Plus SoM Demos - Machine Learning and Multiple Displays
Published on October 26, 2020
The i.MX 8M Plus processor from NXP contains some notable differences from the i.MX 8M and i.MX8M Mini predecessors:
- Integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU)
- LVDS display support
- Integrated CAN
- Built-in Dual Camera ISP
The Nitrogen8M Plus System on Module was designed to take advantage of these new features.
In the 2 demos below, we demonstrate the NPU capabilities of the i.MX 8M Plus processor as well as show the additional LVDS output while driving multiple displays.
Demo #1 Object Detection
In this demo, we demonstrate the object detection performance of the i.MX 8M Plus compared to a strict CPU method. We also show how the NPU can quickly detect various options utilizing a USB camera.
Demo #2 Multiple Displays
In this demo, we show 2 different displays - 1 via LVDS and the 2nd via HDMI - being driven at the same time with independent content.
