چکیده

This paper presents a design and hardware implementation of a CMOS sensor based video camera incorporating a module, which combines the functions of automatic white balancing (A WB) and automatic exposure control (AEC). The finctionaliQ is achieved using dynamic control of sensor registers using I2C sensor interface. The image data processing is performed using a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The combined A WB/AEC module can be implemented using a gate count of IOk. The results indicate that the implemented video camera produce desired functionality with good reaction lime.

An Image Sensor with Global Motion Estimation for Micro Camera Module

We describe in this paper the building of a vision sensor able to provide video capture and the associated global motion between two consecutive frames. Our objective is to propose embedded solutions for mobile applications. The global motion considered here is the one typically produced by handheld devices movement, which is required for our purpose of video stabilization. We extract this glob...

Video Processing Applications of High Speed Cmos Image Sensors

An important trend in the design of digital cameras is the integration of capture and processing onto a single CMOS chip. Although integrating the components of a digital camera system onto a single chip significantly reduces system size and power, it does not fully exploit the potential advantages of integration. We argue that a key advantage of integration is the ability to exploit the high s...

An Adaptive LEACH-based Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks

LEACH is the most popular clastering algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, it has two main drawbacks, including random selection of cluster heads, and direct communication of cluster heads with the sink. This paper aims to introduce a new centralized cluster-based routing protocol named LEACH-AEC (LEACH with Adaptive Energy Consumption), which guarantees to generate balanced cl...
