Abstract :
Video security and surveillance applications have characteristics that fit well with the capabilities offered by media processors. We compare and contrast media processor, ASIC, and general purpose processor approaches to video application development, including the ongoing evolution of architecture and development tools. A state of the art media processor-based DVR application is described as a case study of the benefits and challenges of using a media processor for advanced video development.
