Add always-on, power-efficient and AI-ready vision to your next design by combining ST BrightSense CMOS image sensors with STM32 32-bit Arm Cortex microcontrollers

Vision systems are increasingly adding intelligence at the edge, but for many designers it still feels risky, with tight power budgets, limited BOM and PCB space, and sensor pipelines that take weeks to bring up before you even see a usable frame.

At the end of this webinar, you will know:

• How you can add always-on and AI-ready vision to your next design without paying the usual penalties in power, complexity, and schedule, by combining ST BrightSense CMOS image sensors with STM32 32-bit Arm Cortex microcontrollers as a validated platform
  
• How specific BrightSense devices pair with STM32N6, STM32H5, and STM32U3 MCUs to meet different power, performance, and cost targets, so you are not guessing which combo will work for your application
  
• How to connect the sensors, choose the right data paths, and manage memory and bandwidth constraints on STM32 through concrete hardware and interface examples
  
• How to make your design efficient and robust in the field by using on-sensor intelligence such as hybrid global/rolling shutter, on-chip HDR, RGB-IR/NIR processing, and ultralow-power always-on modes to simplify the hardware and offload the MCU.
  

Agenda

• ST BrightSense portfolio overview - Learn how the latest sensors enable more efficient embedded vision designs
  
• Validated sensor + MCU combinations - See how BrightSense sensors and STM32 MCUs map to different power, performance, and cost targets.
  
• Deep dive 1: Hybrid RGB-IR vision - Explore VD1943 and VB1943, including hybrid global/rolling shutter, HDR, and RGB-IR/NIR processing for flexible image pipelines.
  
• Deep dive 2: Ultralow-power always-on vision - Discover VD55G1 and VD65G4 for detect-and-wake use cases in battery-powered and energy-harvesting applications.
  
• Boards, drivers, and SDKs - Review the tools that help you move quickly from concept to prototype, including evaluation software, drivers, and example applications.
