Key Features:
-
Direct VPI Integration with GStreamer
Seamlessly connect NVIDIA's VPI algorithms (e.g., filters, transforms, keypoint detection) with your GStreamer workflow. -
Support for Multiple Backends
Leverage Jetson's CUDA, PVA, VIC, and CPU backends—choosing the best performance/efficiency trade-off for your system. -
Pre-Built and Custom Elements
Use existing plugins likevpigaussian,vpiundistort,vpiperspectivewarp, and more—or extend the framework for your own VPI use case. -
Accelerated Real-Time Performance
Optimize pipelines for low-latency and high-throughput using hardware acceleration on Jetson devices. -
Rapid Prototyping and Deployment
Skip boilerplate code—focus on your algorithm logic while GstVPI handles VPI-GStreamer integration.
Example Use Case:
An autonomous robot equipped with a Jetson Xavier NX uses GstVPI to apply real-time perspective warp correction and keypoint tracking using VPI algorithms from GStreamer. The processing is offloaded to the GPU and VIC hardware blocks—freeing CPU cycles for navigation and decision logic.

Customer Reviews
"As a side note: just to let you know, I'm really happy to be working with RidgeRun in general. It's pretty clear that you tell it like you see it, and know what you do and don't know; it's really refreshing. That's super rare on these kinds of technical engagements when everyone seems to either want to claim expertise they don't have, or are so cautious they are don't actually say anything useful"
