| “Projecting” images in radar and medical applications |
 |
| By David Pointer, SRC Computers |
|
| An FPGA contributes to a reconfigurable system’s performance by allowing a programmer to explicitly and completely dedicate a device to the solution of the regular, uninterrupted streaming aspects of a program |

| Big images, complex processing? Think objects |
 |
|
| Today’s real-time image processing hardware is feeling the pinch. Gigabit Ethernet links feed multi-million pixel full color space video to frame grabbers. Multi-core processors, fed by high bandwidth PCI Express ports, consume image processed data as fast as it can be delivered. It’s no wonder that traditional reprogrammable devices are straining to keep pace across a range of automated inspection, security/surveillance, and professional video applications. |
