BDTI publishes an article on Imagination Technology's Raptor ISP IP,
announced in Nov. 2013. Imagination got into ISP technology with Nethra acquisition in June 2012. The company claims a number of advantages of moving the ISP functionality from image sensor to an application processor:
- No functional constraints that might be caused by the image sensor's or standalone chip's comparatively conservative manufacturing process
- Higher performance due to the application processor's same process advantages
- Access to main system memory for enhanced functionality, and
- Reduced cost and increased flexibility in image sensor choice
