Kota Solomon Raju, Dorothi Borgohain, Manoj Pandey . A Hardware Implementation to Compute Displacement of Moving Object in a Real Time Video. International Journal of Computer Applications. 69, 18 ( May 2013), 41-44. DOI=10.5120/12075-8336
This paper presents the implementation of FPGA based real time object tracking system that is targeted to Spartan-6 IVK board. The presented work combines both hardware and software flow where the complex parts of the algorithm such as computing displacement is designed to HW modules. Other part of the algorithm such as video data fetching, window based weight calculation is targeted to software. In our work, we are using standard video format having resolution of 1280x720. The main idea of this work is to accelerate the performance of the object detection system by partitioning the algorithm between dedicated hardware IP core and software.
