  • 4K (UHD) HDR10 video output for crisp, life-like images and richer colours
  • 4K video playback for the best picture decoding quality
  • Glueless display attachment for multiple independent displays
  • Glueless camera sensor interface for eye-tracking or analysis of viewer impression

Our RK3368-µQ7 and PX30-µQ7 modules provide:

  • Single 1080p display
  • Rich peripheral interface
  • Small form-factor

MACHINE LEARNING (AI)

From “Chatbots” that provide customer service on a webpage to GPS systems that map out directions to avoid traffic and intelligent robots that perform complex manufacturing, Artificial Intelligence is all around us.

Machine learning uses algorithms and statistical models to design AI systems which interpret and respond to data in a similar way as humans.

Theobroma Systems provides hardware and software capabilities to create products that support machine learning systems for various applications.
