Artificial Intelligence

Mobile evolved with intelligence
For the advanced features driven by artificial intelligence, the Exynos 9609 processor utilizes a vision image processing unit that consists of a digital signal processor (DSP) and neural network engine. With a deep-learning technology, the DSP converts analog streams of images and video into a digital signal, and the neural-network engine analyzes the objects or environment within the image. Thus, the Exynos 9609’s vision image processing unit enables smartphones to offer intelligent photography experiences.
