Intel Technology Tour 2025: Panther Lake Next-Gen IPU Architecture | Talking Tech | Intel Technology
Our coverage of the 2025 edition of the Intel Technology Tour continues with a deep dive into image and video processing powered by Panther Lake’s integrated IPU. Hosted by IPU Product Marketing Manager Tomer Rider, this technical session explains the inner workings of an essential component for anyone who uses a webcam. He breaks down how raw input from the camera sensor is processed to produce the lifelike images and video you see on-screen, the benefits of integrated image processing compared to discrete alternatives, and the latest IPU 7.5 architecture integrated into Core Ultra series 3 processors. New features for this generation include staggered HDR blending, AI-based noise reduction, and local tone mapping.
