DeepField-SR: AI-based Super-Resolution Accelerated by Xilinx FPGA Cards
DeepField-SR is a fixed functional hardware accelerator that leverages Xilinx Alveo cards and FPGA instances in the cloud or on-premise to offer the highest computational efficiency for video super-resolution. Based on the proprietary neural network trained with real-word video data from the internet and fusing spatio-temporal information in multiple frames, it produces superior high-resolution video quality.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
DeepField-SR is deployable on both public cloud and on-premise with Xilinx Alveo U200/U50 Accelerator Cards. As it is designed in scalable architecture and supports multiple FPGA cards, it can flexibly respond to various resolution upscale requests. Its runtime performance on a single Alveo U50 is 11 ~ 14fps to upscale video up to 4K resolution. The API is integrated within an ffmpeg workflow, meaning that simple command enables DeepField-SR acceleration and upscaling user input video.
KEY FEATURES
- AI-based video super-resolution
- Input resolution: 64x48 to 1280x720
- Output resolution: 64x48 to 3840x2160:
