After another look at this on
this page:
Quote: [...]the EXR processor incorporates a reconfigurable processor. This processor that can [sic] dynamically adapt with rewritable circuits gives the EXR processor ample capacity to perform complex correction and processing tasks.
Definitely an FPGA of some sort, likely part of an SoC. From the description, it's probably used to accelerate post-processing operations.
I'm not sure how an FPGA would help in performing these operations. FPGAs are very expensive, so how is this more cost-effective than an additional processor core? How is this better then, say, just using a Snapdragon as the image processor?
