This paper presents GIMME2, an embedded stereovision system, designed to be compact, power efficient, cost effective, and high performing in the area of image processing. GIMME2 features two 10 megapixel image sensors and a Xilinx Zynq, which combines FPGA-fabric with a dual-core ARM CPU on a single chip. This enables GIMME2 to process video-rate megapixel image streams at real-time, exploiting the...
The main challenges in smart camera networks come from the limited capacity of network communications. Indeed, wireless protocols such as the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol target low data rate, low power consumption and low cost wireless networking in order to fit the requirements of sensor networks.
This paper presents GIMME (General Image Multiview Manipulation Engine), a highly flexible reconfigurable stand-alone mobile two-camera vision platform with stereo-vision capability. GIMME relies on reconfigurable hard-ware (FPGA) to perform application-specific low to medium-level image-processing at video-rate. The Qseven-extension enables additional processing power. Thanks to its compact design,...
Camera networks are important in a video surveillance system. Many surveillance systems research has been done; most of it utilizes a general purpose computer. However, the latest trend is to use small, task specific and low power computer to process and control the system; in another word using embedded systems. This paper presents a camera network localization algorithm to be implemented on a FPGA...
Trends of high power usage in portable consumer electronics and high speed designs is an important factor that biases the selection of an ASIC over a FPGA. ASICs are optimized to minimize the amount of logics used for a particular application; reductions in power are noticed when compared against FPGAs design for the same application. On the other hand, some FPGAs equipped with run-time reconfiguration,...
This paper describes the idea and the implementation of the robust algorithm dedicated to extraction of moving vehicles from real-time camera images for the evaluation of traffic parameters, such as the number of vehicles, their direction of movement and their approximate speed. The authors, apart from the careful selection of particular steps of the algorithm towards hardware implementation, also...
