Cypress Semiconductor has introduced an evaluation kit for its automotive image sensor technology. The ECK100 kit provides a complete lab bench evaluation platform, including a miniature camera head with CMOS imager, Windows-based management software, an FPGA control box, cables and power supply, and an application programming interface. The kit enables designers to quickly develop automotive safety systems using Cypress's image sensor technology for such applications as night vision, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot detection, lane departure warning systems, collision mitigation, driver drowsiness monitoring and pedestrian detection. The ECK100 Evaluation Camera Kit is currently available and is priced from $3,500 to $5,000 depending on options.
