Building upon the market-proven Octopus 3, Parrot "O3+" takes digital and analog
radio reception to the next level.
The current generation is already deployed through major European, Japanese and
Chinese OEMs and enables global radio reception: AM, FM, DAB, DAB+, DRM, DRM+,
DVB-T2 Lite and HD Radio* standards.
Aside from this worldwide tuner, the Octopus 3+ embeds an ARM Cortex-A5
processor with a fully-featured Linux system running Parrot well-known
connectivity middleware for Bluetooth, telephony, voice recognition, media, etc.
The chip also features an Ethernet, CAN and USB interface.
The O3+ is running the state of the art processing algorithms that made the
success of the Octopus Chip Series: fast and accurate channel estimation,
multipath rejection, Doppler Effect compensation and MRC diversity.
Thanks to its background scanning and diversity capacities, the Octopus 3+ is
also an all-in-one high- end radio solution. As a result, it enables best-in-
class reception of radio in motion, even at very high speeds. The Octopus 3+
addresses all major radio standards deployed throughout the world, thus
providing car makers with a single solution for global deployment, lowering R&D,
testing and qualification costs.
The Octopus 3+ plays its part in building an increasingly connected in-vehicle
environment at an affordable cost.
In addition, this universal component delivers the processing power required by
any variation of smart antenna or media box application. The Octopus 3+ is
offered to all major Tier-1 auto suppliers as a reference design.
"We are proud to bring this cutting edge tuner-processor to the automotive
market: the Octopus 3+ enables worldwide tuner capabilities and media features,"
says Éric Riyahi, Executive Vice-President at Parrot Automotive.
