Presented here is an architecture for implenting a sub-pixel resolution edge detector based upon the second difference of a Gaussian filtering. A pipelining approach allows many simple operations to be performed in parallel across the video data stream so allowing a throughput at video rate, 10MHz. The output is intended describe edges in terms of an 8-bit strength and orientation as well as 8-bit Cartesian sub-pixel offsets giving a possible resolution of l/5Oth of a pixel edge position.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
