GoPro Announces Next-Generation AI Image Processor GP3

On March 3rd, GoPro announced the upcoming GP3, GoPro's most powerful custom image processor to date. The GP3 is GoPro's proprietary 5nm system-on-a-chip, boasting more than double the pixel processing power of its predecessor, the GP2, and delivering exceptional AI-driven image quality and low-light performance. The GP3's energy efficiency and thermal performance are expected to significantly outperform competitors, achieving industry-leading battery life in the most demanding environments. These advancements will usher in a new era for the compact camera market—including action cameras, 360° cameras, vlog cameras, and high-end compact cinema cameras—offering professional-grade image quality, low-light performance, high resolution, and frame rates.

The accompanying images, taken with GoPro's next-generation camera system powered by the GP3, showcase the groundbreaking image quality and low-light performance of this new technology.

At the heart of GoPro's innovative GP3 processor is a dedicated AI neural network processor unit that enables next-generation video pixel processing and market-leading low-light image performance. The GP3 also features a dedicated core for scene recognition and subject detection, enabling GoPro cameras to understand their environment in real time and automatically adjust camera settings. With its 5nm architecture and extremely efficient power consumption, the GP3 promises to achieve market-leading resolution and frame rates, while significantly outperforming competitors in battery life and thermal performance.
