Xilinx Demonstrations Booth #N311
RTVE 2.1
The Xilinx RTVE, developed with OmniTek, targets the Zynq-7045 device running on an OmniTek OZ745 board with a Linux Operating System (OS) running the Qt application and user interface (UI) framework on one processor with a 2D graphics engine running a first person shooter video game all while processing up to 8 streams of 1080p HD video in real-time. The demonstration highlights various compute-intensive video functions simultaneously running on the hardware and software systems. The video system reference design can support up to 8 channels of real-time scaling, de-interlacing and alpha-blending using Xilinxs high performance parallel processing capability.
The RTVE running on Kintex-7 FPGAs
The Xilinx RTVE, featuring Kintex-7 FPGAs, allows broadcast equipment designers and manufacturers to quickly implement up to 8 channels of real-time video and image processing related solutions across the acquisition, contribution and distribution segments of the Broadcast market.
Xilinxs SMPTE 2022 video over IP
This demonstration, developed by Barco-Silex, showcases a complete reference design intended for the intelligent transport of video over IP-based networks and showcases transmission of lightly compressed video over a 1 Gbps Ethernet network using JPEG2000 and uncompressed video over a 10 Gbps Ethernetnetwork.
Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC Video & Imaging Kit
An image processing pipeline with real-time motion detection implemented using OpenCV libraries processed through the Vivado High-Level Synthesis (HLS) tool suite that is then being fed into a 1080p60 image processing pipeline that has been built using Vivado IP Integrator (IPI).
Xilinx Demonstrations by Alliance Program Members
Several Xilinx Alliance Program members will showcase the following Xilinx-based technology demonstrations in their NAB booths:
Barco-Silex Booth #C4742

Xilinx-based demonstrations of their UltraHD 4K JPEG2000 cores and SMPTE2022 JPEG2000 reference applications.
OmniTek Booth #N4323
OmniTek will demonstrate the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC (Zynq-7045 device) video development platform (OZ745) running the RTVE 2.1 and showing its multi-view processing capabilities with color space conversion, chroma upsample, resize, deinterlacer, video overlay, SDI and HDMI video I/O host web page control from the ARM processor; the other demonstrations include Xilinx-based broadcast test and measurement products for analysis of stereo 3D images, picture and audio quality and physical layer signal integrity.
Vanguard Booth #SU11726MR
Vanguard will demonstrate Xilinx-based hardware acceleration of their H.265/HEVC encoder core.
About Xilinx Smarter Vision Solutions
Xilinx Smarter Vision solutions include a broad portfolio of building blocks for smarter systems, called SmartCORE IP. The SmartCORE IP portfolio, developed by both Xilinx and its ecosystem, includes both hardware IP targeting All Programmable logic and software IP developed for high performance ARM processors. SmartCORE IP can be rapidly integrated via the Vivado IPI (IP Integrator). Additionally, new IP can be generated from: C, C++ or SystemC with Vivado HLS (high-level synthesis), and now includes industry standard OpenCV libraries, which are supported by popular operating systems and software development environments. A wide range of design kits further accelerate design productivity for smarter systems design.
Xilinx Smarter Vision solutions leverage Xilinx FPGAs, 3D ICs and Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoCs. Xilinx All Programmable SoCs are considered the ideal platform for designers to rapidly deliver highly integrated solutions with real-time pixel processing in programmable logic with ARM processor-based analytics for ever smarter video broadcast, machine vision and immersive displays.
