The goal of this project is to provide the students with a deep knowledge, understanding and experience of all stages of the VLSI design process from concept to the testing of the fabricated silicon. In this project, the students will design and implement a hardware accelerator for an image demosaic algorithm.

Project description: Background: The goal of the project is to design and implement a video processing accelerator to allow real time processing of a video stream. The accelerator will be composed a series of independent video processing units each of which receive a video stream as input and generate a processed video stream at the output which is fed into the next unit. Alpha blending is the process of combining...

Project Abstract: There are endless number of platforms that require implementation of video transformations, such as curve TV/computer/smartphone screens, goggles, pilot hamlet, etc. All these platforms require transformation of flat image to curved image that fits the display, so the user can see the image well without data loss. The main challenges of the core implementation are low latency (“video in => video out), high video resolutions and frame rate....

The goal is to design and implement the HDL of a high-performance hardware serial divider for high frequencies. Initially, at least two different division algorithms will be investigated and analyzed. The design will be parametrized so that it can be configured according to specified requirements. The divider will support a variety of input / output number representation formats.

מערכות חישה מתקדמות בנויות ממספר הולך וגדל של טכנולוגיות חישה שונות, כגון - EO/IR/SAR. לכל טכנולוגיה ישנן יתרונות וחסרונות: - למשל מצלמת יום מאפשרת לקבל תמונה ברזולוציה מרחבית טובה מאוד בדו-מימד אך רגישה מאוד לתנאי סביבה ואינה מסוגלת לבצע הפרדה תלת מימדית - מצלמת LWIR) long wave IR) מאפשרת זיהוי אובייקטים בטמפרטורות שונות ורגישותה לתנאי סביבה טובה יותר מאשר מצלמה אופטית רגילה. - מצלמת מכ"ם (SAR) מאפשרת לקבל תמונה בכל...

Edge and feature extraction is one of the most important first steps in computer vision. Its main objective is to find as many useful features from a scene while keeping the output noise level to a minimum. Edge, corner and vertex detection processes serve to simplify the analysis of images by drastically reducing the amount of data to be processed. The SUSAN principle is the basis for algorithms to perform...

The goal of this project is to develop a variation of the SUSAN feature detection algorithm which can be implemented with digital processing on special purpose hardware. The goal of this algorithm will be focused on corner detection.
