Abstract :
A fast VLSI motion estimator based on bit plane matching is proposed. The motion estimator employs a pair of processing cores that calculate the motion vector concurrently. By controlling the data flow in a systolic fashion using internal shift registers of the processing cores, the local memory (SRAM) is discarded to reduce the time overhead for accessing the local memory and utilise lower-cost fabrication technology
