Abstract
Digital image processing is an ever expanding and dynamic area with applications reaching out into everyday life such as medicine, space exploration, surveillance, authentication, automated industry inspection and many more areas. Applications such as these involve different processes like image enhancement and object detection. Implementing such applications on a general purpose computer can be easier, but not very time efficient due to additional constraints on memory and other peripheral devices. Hardware implementation for application specific can offer much greater speed than a software implementation. With the advancement in the Very Large Scale of Integration (VLSI) technology hardware implementation has become an attractive alternative. Implementing complex computation tasks on hardware and by exploiting parallelism and pipelining in algorithms yield significant reduction in execution times. It has been observed that most of the work has been done either in C and JAVA. No work has been done in the VHDL to design and develop the chip for image enhancement algorithms. Intensity transformation is used to enhance the size of image pixels. The chip design for 2D and 3D image enhancement is done in Xilinx 14. 2 software. Image enhanced values are verified with the help of waveform editor of Modelism software, Modelsim SE 10. 1b.
