Dynamically Reconfigurable Vision-Chip Architecture

Recently, for autonomous vehicles and robots, demand has been increasing for high-speed image recognition that is superior to that of the human eye. To date, analog-type vision chips and digital vision chips have been developed. Nevertheless, even now, to realize such high-speed real-time image recognition operation is extremely difficult. Therefore, to realize a high-speed real-time image-recognizable vision chip, this paper presents a proposal for a dynamically reconfigurable vision chip architecture. In addition, some experimental results are reported.
