ABSTRACT

Altera is one of the most competitive FPGA manufacturers. It provides lots of reliable and reusable IP cores for FPGA designers, but most IP cores focus on the communication protocol. Considering the wide use of FPGA in image processing, lots of researchers have been devoted to FPGA-based image processing IP core designs. Ahmad [5] designed a two-dimensional Haar wavelet transform IP core and dynamic partial reconfiguration IP core and implemented the face recognition system. Chandrakanth [6] designed a configurable Fast Fourier Transform IP core, which improved the IP core reusability greatly. Bendaoudi [7] designed a stereovision IP core and implement the obstacle detection system. Di Carlo [8] used FPGA real-time performance to accelerate the image denoising speed and designed an adaptive image denoising IP core.
