Abstract :
This paper presents a real time architecture made of systolic modules for applications in the “early processing” level of computer vision systems. The purpose of the architecture is to determine dynamically the threshold by local edge evaluation. Systolic modules are proposed for the edge detection, for finding the histogram and for the evaluation of the edge quality which is used to determine dynamically the threshold
