As a semiconductor company that has been fighting for more than 60 years in the field of automotive electronics, Toshiba has a wide range of on-board semiconductor products ranging from discrete devices to large-scale integrated circuits, from motor-driven circuits to infinitely variable control circuits, from analog circuits to MCUs. Used in various parts of automotive electronics. Today, Toshiba has focused on the image processing and image recognition fields required by the new generation of automotive electronics. In particular, the Visconti series has been launched for the market demand of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), providing low power consumption and high performance for ADAS products. Image recognition processor.
For ADAS, the most important thing is to be able to provide a safe driving solution without burdening the driver. The ultimate goal of this active research is unmanned driving. It is hoped that future advanced driver assistance systems will continue to add functionality and increase processing power in applications. The ADAS system requires a more need for such a SoC to support simultaneous identification of multiple targets, including lane lines, vehicles, pedestrians, and other targets, and requires fast and low power consumption.
To this end, Toshiba has developed CoHOG recognition technology, which further enhances recognition capabilities.

This is a very important shift for the automotive industry, meaning that the automotive industry will be able to deploy advanced systems in a more cost-effective manner.
Editorial perspective
The ideal application of smart car technology has been sketched up by major companies, but the reality is very skinny. Although the reality is very skinny, car electronics technology has been continuously developing. Throughout the car's internal structure, there are thousands of microcontrollers used inside, 8-bit single-chip microcomputers, 32-bit single-chip microcomputers, and ARM processors. Major semiconductor companies can implement “black technology†functions such as face recognition, automatic parking, and non-sensing start and stop in the car. Features such as face recognition driver, high-definition instrument, and automatic adjustment seat have been integrated into the Audi A4. In Mercedes-Benz and other high-class cars, but these high-tech technologies have not been popularized in family cars. Higher-order technical functions such as gesture control recognition, image recognition, and radar warning systems are often limited to experiments and have not been widely commercialized.
There are two main reasons for this: On the one hand, although automakers can get strong support from semiconductor manufacturers, most consumers are reluctant to pay for many high-tech features. First, consumers have doubts about their safety and reliability. Second, in addition to the high cost of buying a car, they also have to undertake advanced functions such as automatic parking, radar remote distance warning, and face recognition. Maintenance costs. Many consumers believe that cars are just a means of transportation. These so-called high-tech technologies are optional, and there is no need to pay high fees.
On the other hand, automakers face the risk of “high-techâ€. There are hundreds of safety-related components in a car. If any component has a 3% failure rate, the car manufacturer will recall the compensation. And bear legal responsibility. From the perspective of safety performance, I am afraid that no manufacturer will take such a big risk to commercialize all theoretically achievable high-tech technologies.
The reality of skinny is that many non-commercial automotive technology applications are emerging one after another, but some can only stay in the testing stage. To universally apply them to automobiles, these technologies need to be commercialized, and their performance should be more secure and reliable. At the same time, the cost paid for it can be accepted by the public.
