Description
Summary:Presented in this paper is a system that controls the SCAMP-3 cellular processor array vision chip, and provides an interface between it and a host system. This system can be used in real-time image processing, or computer vision applications. The system includes a sequencer for issuing instructions to the array processor, a configurable analogue interface and read-out circuitry, a system controller, which enables system operation and communication with the host, and a suite of software components, which include libraries, simulator, compiler and user interface. The presented hardware is a stand-alone vision system, which can be used in the development of PC-based or embedded applications
