Overview
Description
The RZ/V2N AI MPU Evaluation Kit V2.0 (RTK0EF0186C03001BJ) is used to evaluate our RZ/V2N quad-core vision AI MPU. The kit includes a CPU board and an expansion board (EXP board). V2.0 adds support for the DDR Suspend to RAM function, and the power supply circuit configuration has been changed accordingly. We provide an AI Software Development Kit (AI SDK) as the software development environment for this evaluation kit. It allows for the evaluation of low-power AI inference, video streaming, and other built-in features. If you are using an older version of the EVK, please refer to the V1.0 documentation.

Design & Development
Videos & Training
Learn how to implement software JPEG encoding on the RZ/V2N using GStreamer and libjpeg-turbo. The tutorial covers the complete workflow, including USB camera capture through V4L2, image format conversion, JPEG compression using the jpegenc plugin, and image file generation. It also demonstrates Yocto image customization, board setup, camera verification, GStreamer pipeline execution, and performance benchmarking using OpenCV. Finally, the video evaluates JPEG encoding throughput on the Cortex-A55 processor and discusses typical embedded vision use cases such as AI snapshot capture, event logging, cloud image uploads, and debug image storage.

- RZ/V2N Mali-C55 ISP Support Package Integration with AI SDK 6.30 and IMX462
Hello Renesas Team, We are working with the RZ/V2N EVK using AI SDK v6.30 and have integrated a Sony IMX462 camera through MIPI CSI-2. Our current camera pipeline is working as follows: IMX462 (RAW10) → CSI-2 RX → CRU Image Converter → /dev/video0 → H.264 ...
