Getting Started with RV1126B + IMX415 AI Camera Kit

Introduction

The RV1126B is a low-cost yet powerful edge AI processor from Rockchip with robust AI inference capabilities. Combined with the IMX415 (Sony) image sensor, it enables rapid development of 4K-resolution AI camera products.

Hardware Configuration

  • SoC: RV1126B (with NPU delivering 2.0 TOPS)
  • Sensor: IMX415 (MIPI CSI connection)
  • Interface: USB-C power, Ethernet, microSD

Evaluating WebRTC Video Streaming

One of the key strengths of this kit is real-time video preview from a browser. Low-latency streaming via WebRTC supports the following use cases:

  • Remote monitoring
  • Collaborative live video review
  • Video viewing from mobile devices

Leveraging the Recording SDK

Provides local recording via H.264/H.265 encoding. Supports trigger-based recording, scheduled recording, and upload.

Summary

The RV1126B + IMX415 is an ideal platform as a starting point for AI camera product development. With integrated SDKs for WebRTC, recording, and AI inference, PoC evaluation can be completed in a short timeframe.
