One of the features of Sulfur is that it can evaluate various cameras and image sensors such as MIPI CSI-2, SLVS-EC, and CameraLink. Since it is equipped with many other interfaces, there is no need to develop a new entire board for prototype use, making it possible to significantly reduce board development man-hours and board manufacturing costs during function development. Sulfur can support any application that combines the Agilex\u2122 5 FPGAs E series ARM processor and FPGA fabric, from industrial applications such as machine vision and robot\/motor controllers to slow mobility and object applications such as AGV\/AMR and service robots. It enables algorithm development, validation, and system enhancements for a wide range of today's applications, including detection, video surveillance, and autonomous driving assistance.\"
