FRAMOS & Toradex strengthen partnership

Enhanced integration between Toradex’s System-on-modules (SoMs) and FRAMOS Camera Modules simplifies the prototyping and development of embedded vision systems based on NXP processors.

Embedded system engineers and architects, as well as technical team leads in robotics, IoT, medical, and industrial applications, can now benefit from a simplified approach to building embedded systems with vision capabilities: FRAMOS and Toradex are deepening their partnership.

Specifically, FRAMOS and Toradex have built a seamless integration between the FSM:GO family of optical sensor modules and the Verdin iMX8M Plus SoM, both for the Yocto Project and for Torizon. Engineers can now more easily integrate validated camera modules and image sensors with Toradex’s NXP-based SoMs, reducing development time and complexity. Both companies also provide detailed documentation, useful demos and coordinated support.

In addition to driver support for Toradex’s Verdin iMX8M Plus, which already supports the full line of FRAMOS FSM:GO camera modules, work is currently underway to integrate drivers for the Verdin iMX95 BSP. Both companies offer long-term availability for the integrated products.

Evaluation kits from both companies help developers prototype faster and accelerate time to market, especially for AI-enabled edge applications like drones and industrial IoT devices. For example, drones can be developed that take razor-sharp, high-resolution aerial images that are processed and evaluated directly in the field and whose data is sent over-the-air (OTA) to a central cloud instance.

“The partnership between FRAMOS and Toradex will not only inspire embedded system engineers, but above all the applications they build,” says Nathan Dinning, Head of Product Management at FRAMOS

“With FRAMOS, we have found a strong partner to help our customers achieve advanced imaging capabilities for their embedded systems,” says Carlos Gonzalez Mancebo, Head of Partnerships at Toradex.
