DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: The Texas Instruments C66 digital signal processor combines capabilities from both HPC coprocessors (such as GPUs and the Intel Phi) and embedded system-on-chip processors.  Specifically, it offers an equal or better Gflops per Watt ratio than GPUs, has substantially higher raw floating point capability than embedded processors, contains a substantial set of on-chip high-speed communication interfaces, and is capable of hosting its own operating system.  In this talk we describe our evaluation of the C66 with respect to its ability to perform real-time computer vision tasks on high resolution data.  For this purpose we developed a hand-tuned Lucas-Kanade optical flow kernel and used it to perform object detection and tracking on HD video.  Our kernel achieves a higher overall throughput than previous efforts and can be integrated into a power efficient video capture and display system.  We also describe the design of this system and its end-to-end performance.
