Ittiam’s IP Video Phone and IP STBs

Overview

VoIP and IP Video Phone options are logical extensions in a triple-play IP STB solution. A majority of IP-STB solutions employ a powerful DSP for media processing and a RISC processor for networking, user interface and application level protocols.

Ittiam’s iPVP solution on TMS320DM64x™ is engineered for easy integration into emerging IP STBs.

Salient Features

• Packaged at a DSP sub-system level subsuming all video and speech processing and telephony components
• A rich set of application programming interfaces (API) facilitates easy integration within the IP STB application on the RISC processor
• Scheduling of the media engine tasks is handled by the DSP sub-system using an operating system (OS) abstraction layer to achieve high-quality lip synchronized playback
• Using suitable driver level abstractions, the DSP subsystem enables multiple video, speech capture and playback devices to be interfaced to the DSP
• Networking and call control framework is suitably abstracted to be OS and IP stack independent and can run either on the RISC processor or on the DSP itself
• In another form, the offering is available as a framework supporting speech, telephony, networking and call control on the RISC processor to provide VoIP capabilities

Target applications

• Triple-play IP STBs
