Abstract :
This paper presents a motion estimation processor based on a dual-core architecture. Both cores are based on bit-serial adder trees. Memory structures are also described. This architecture is bit-precision reconfigurable. Performance results for several smartphones and tablets are presented. Furthermore, hardware results and comparison with other works are included. Real-time processing is achieved for all devices studied.
