A Googler on the Google Taiwan silicon team says that image processing has been improved with their new DSP and that it’ll continue to improve with future Pixel Feature Drops. The custom DSP seems to be code-named “Aurora”. It’s also referred to as a “GXP” device in some places, though I don’t know what GXP stands for.

Inconspicuous but significant changes in Tensor G2 – DSP
With Google’s announcement of the Pixel 7 (Pro), the so-called layman’s watch, the insider’s way, inevitably many anecdotal comments are still stuck on the Samsung process and the CPU/GPU specifications are conservative, etc., Most of the articles on technical websites/forums are considered to be clearance goods or little progress are mostly hasty conclusions, except that the process has not changed in particular, and a considerable amount of time was spent in the introduction of G2 at the press conference a week ago to emphasize G2.
The power of the new generation TPU and other units are very fast. It is not easy to check the improvement except for the mentioned TPU. If you compare the first generation Tensor with your heart, you will find members of the new Tensor platform – DSP With the introduction of DSP, it can be expected that image processing will improve due to the use of DSP. In the future, with the opening of Feature Drop, it can be expected that the experience and performance will improve.
