Title: Video processing hardware requirements
Post by: Crunchy Theory on March 04, 2011, 06:03:37 PM
Would anyone care to venture a guess for the processing power required to do video processing on an embedded system? Would the Blackfin (camera) specs be a good benchmark?

I'm looking at some ARM-based 32-bit processors from Atmel and STM and they don't seem to offer anything close to the 400MHz Blackfin. Best I can find is around 120MHz.
