Meet Rhonda Software FleetCam Proto - the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) and Driver Monitoring System (DMS) Platform based on the Ambarella CV25 SoC, with an integrated front-ADAS library developed by Brodmann17, and a DMS library provided by Jungo.

This Platform is capable of analyzing both on-the-road situations and driver attention, as well as issuing warnings and capturing corresponding video events remotely on Celesta ­- Rhonda Software's video cloud service. Cloud-based Web UI and Mobile App allow users to manage the connected cameras, and review on-the-road events gathered along with location data.

The Rhonda Software Fleet Cam Proto is ready for use and testing. It provides a solid basis for the development of customized Driver Safety Systems, that are in high demand in markets such as: commercial & passenger transport fleet management, telematics service providers, telematics insurance, car-sharing.

Rhonda Software is showcasing the Person Re-Identification demo, combined with Pose Estimation and Activity Recognition DNNs on a single Camera platform powered by an Ambarella CV2 SoC.
Our CV-team have designed and trained a bundle of new neural networks to enable the re-identification scenario with compact feature descriptors transferred between two camera units, so that a person visible on one camera will be successfully recognized on another.

The main difficulty in achieving this was in balancing performance and recognition quality to run all DNNs efficiently on the Rhonda Software CV2 System on a Module (SoM) platform.

As a result, the system is able to learn and re-identify the person in the live camera feed. The re-identification algorithm is sophisticated enough to do body tracking and appearance model re-learning on the go, when conditions allow. Identity models are shared with other cameras for multi-camera person tracking.
To demonstrate the power of DNN acceleration on the Ambarella CV2 platform in addition to re-ID, the Pose Estimation and Activity Recognition networks were running in parallel on each person in the camera’s field of view.

Rhonda Software developed the CNN (convolutional neural network) -based classifier for pedestrian detection and HW-accelerated it on the Ambarella CV22 SoC. Ambarella CV22 SoC-based Rhonda CV22 SOM with HDMI-in board is used for demonstration. HDMI-out of CV22 SOM is connected to display, while its HDMI-in is connected to PC's HDMI-out. 4K video signal input from PC over HDMI is processed on CV22 SOM, and recognition results are outputted to HDMI-out. Pedestrians are detected and marked with blue frames. Camera application is based on Rhonda Camera SDK.

Rhonda Software implemented video streaming with WICED stack on RTOS. Camera application is based on Rhonda Camera SDK with Cypress WICED integrated on RTOS. Board's Wi-Fi AP is detected and connected in less than 4 seconds after power up.

Rhonda Software developed the Auto Exposure (AE) algorithm. Rhonda video decoder application receives video from the camera and allows user to select any region by touching the screen at an Android device. Selected coordinates are sent to the camera, and the camera applies window to the Rhonda AE algorithm. The algorithm, in its turn, calculates the best local exposure. Camera application is based on Rhonda Camera SDK.

Rhonda Software developed the Auto Focus (AF) algorithm. The camera streams video in 720p@30 H.264 over RTMP protocol with 1 Mbps. Rhonda video decoder application receives this video from the camera and allows user to select any region by touching the screen at an Android device. Selected coordinates are sent to the camera, and the camera applies window to the Rhonda AF algorithm. The algorithm, in its turn, finds the best focus position.

The Ambarella A9 platform makes the next step in dashcam technology. 4K is 8 megapixels, it's 4 times bigger than the commonly used Full HD resolution. This allows the recording of more fine details, such as plate numbers of distant cars. The up-to-date SDXC memory card standard is supported. A 64 GB card allows up to 3 hours of recording in 4K resolution. Do you want to publish or print moments from your recording? No problem. Snapshots extracted from 4K video are like 8 MP snapshots from photo cameras, so you can take any moment from the video and share or print it as a photo. Want to publish the action you captured? Even if it is far, zooming leaves enough resolution for good quality video. Use your 4K TV capabilities with the supported HDMI outlet.
