FPGA-based smart camera : industrial applications
2013
International audience; For the last two decades and still today, smart cameras offer innovative solutions for industrial vision applications. This kind of system associates a flexible image acquisition with high-speed processing possibilities. Many smart camera designs are based on FPGA components to obtain these two features. Indeed, the FPGA enables the CMOS sensor to be controlled and therefore to propose a configurable acquisition according to the application constraints (i.e. dynamic windowing). The configurable structure of a FPGA represents a key advantage for modifying the embedded processing (even on-the-fly using dynamic reconfiguration). Meanwhile, FPGA components offer a large …
Reconfigurable digital instrumentation based on FPGA
2004
A novel application of FPGA to realize digital test equipment is proposed. It takes advantage of the dynamic reconfigurability of FPGAs so easily tailoring custom test functions in the same instrument. This results in high effective, compact and low cost instruments.
Architectures and protocols for mobile computing applications: a reconfigurable approach
2004
This work deals with reconfigurable control functions and protocols for supporting mobile computing applications in heterogeneous wireless systems like cellular networks and WLANs. The control functions are implemented in a software module, named Reconfigurable Access module for MObile computiNg applications (RAMON), placed in mobile and/or base stations. RAMON operates on abstract models of the main communication functions of a wireless systems (e.g., transmission over the radio channel, coding end error recovery, capacity sharing and packet scheduling, handover, congestion control, etc.). RAMON algorithms are programmed with reference to the abstract models, independently of specific radi…
