Sanyo Realizes Industry-Leading Image Quality Using Altera Programmable Logic for Home Theater Systems
Altera Stratix FPGAs and Nios II Processors Contribute to Development Time and Cost Savings
Sanyo is relying on Stratix FPGAs and Nios II embedded processors to quickly and cost effectively build new home theater systems with industry-leading features and image quality. Altera’s programmable solutions gave Sanyo the flexibility it needed to build advanced image enhancement functions into its projection TV and its home entertainment LCD projector PLV-Z4. In fact, the PLV-Z4 received immediate industry recognition by winning ProjectorReviews.com’s Hot Product Award and a HiVi magazine’s 2005 Best Buy award.
The projector and TV both use a Stratix FPGA hosting a Nios II processor to implement intelligent image processing and enhancement operations that include automatic gamma adjustment, noise reduction, color management, matrix sharpness, and several presentation modes optimized for specific types of content. Altera® Stratix FPGAs provide a key combination of processing power and programming flexibility for integrating multiple functions into a single device. The migration path to a low-cost HardCopy® structured ASIC for high-volume production extends the value of Altera’s product solutions.
“Using Altera FPGAs and processors in our latest home theater products lets us deliver the most feature-rich and visually rewarding display solutions. Altera’s programmable solutions allowed the rapid development of this industry-leading product differentiation which would have been impossible with alternatives such as ASSPs, costly ASICs, or traditional processors.”
