NEC starts shipping image detection chips for cars

[Guest]

NEC Electronics is shipping image detection chips that can tell cars to hit the brakes, before hitting a person or another car. The chips will first go into Toyota's Lexus LS460 car this fall and NEC hopes other car companies will adopt the chip. The Imapcar, short for Integrated Memory Alley Processor-Car, has 128 parallel processing units and can detect objects at 30 frames per second.
