Abstract
The design and implementation of a smart imaging system (SIS) based on two-dimensional cellular automata is presented. The SIS performs simple first stage preprocessing of the image in parallel with the sensing operation. The layout of the SIS chip as well as the smart imaging system pixel processing cell (SISPPC) are also shown. The SIS is addressable, like a dynamic memory, and hence techniques such as windowing can be performed rapidly without the large data redundancy that occurs with serially addressed image systems
