NVIDIA invented the highly parallel graphics processing unit—the GPU—in 1999. Since then, NVIDIA has set new standards in visual computing with interactive graphics on products ranging from smart phones and tablets to supercomputers and automobiles. Since computer vision is extremely computationally intensive, it is perfectly suited for parallel processing, and NVIDIA GPUs have led the way in the acceleration of computer vision applications. In embedded vision, NVIDIA is focused on delivering solutions for consumer electronics, driver assistance systems, and national defense programs. NVIDIA expertise in visual computing, combined with the power of NVIDIA parallel processors, delivers exceptional results.
