The CV7 is positioned as the successor to the CV5 (launched in 2021), targeting on-device video analytics and imaging features for consumer and enterprise security cameras.

Ambarella’s CV7 edge AI vision SoC debuts with simultaneous multi-stream video processing up to 8Kp60, delivering higher image quality and over 2.5x AI performance while consuming significantly less power than its CV5 thanks to a 4nm process and Ambarella’s AI accelerator architecture.

The CV7 is presented as a key part of Ambarella’s expanding edge AI portfolio, which has shipped over 39 million units and targets AIoT, security, ADAS, drones, and other edge-perception applications.

Imaging capabilities include HDR, fisheye dewarping, 3D motion-compensated temporal filtering, and enhanced low-light performance down to 0.01 lux.
