A Reconfigurable Platform for Real-Time Embedded Video Image Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The increasing ubiquity of embedded digital video capture creates demand for high-throughput, low-power, flexible and adaptable integrated image processing systems. An architecture for a system-ona-chip solution is proposed, based on reconfigurable computing. The inherent system modularity and the communication infrastructure are targeted at enhancing design productivity and reuse. Power consumption is addressed by a combination of efficient streaming data transfer and reuse mechanisms. It is estimated that the proposed system would be capable of performing up to ten complex image manipulations simultaneously and in real-time on video resolutions up to XVGA.
